Start by halving the whole wheat English muffins and set aside.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the turkey bacon slices. Cook them for about 3-4 minutes per side or until crispy and browned. Remove and place on a paper towel to drain excess fat.
In the same skillet, add olive oil and bring to medium heat. Crack eggs into the skillet, sprinkle with salt and black pepper, and cook until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny, about 4 minutes. Flip the eggs if you prefer over-hard eggs.
While the eggs are cooking, slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Mash it with a fork in a small bowl.
Toast the English muffins in a toaster or on a skillet until golden brown.
Spread the mashed avocado evenly on the toasted sides of the English muffin halves.
Layer each sandwich starting with a slice of low-fat cheddar cheese on one half of the muffin, followed by a cooked egg, two slices of turkey bacon, a handful of spinach leaves, and top with the other half of the muffin.
Press gently and serve immediately for a warm and hearty sandwich.
