Crack the eggs into a bowl, add the milk, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until well combined.

Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Step 3
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Allow to cook undisturbed for about 1 minute until eggs begin to set.

While the eggs are cooking, toast the whole grain bread slices in a toaster until golden brown.
Step 7

Once the eggs are cooked, assemble the sandwich by placing spinach leaves on one slice of toast.
Step 9
Top with scrambled eggs, tomato slices, and avocado slices.
