Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Slice the sweet potatoes into 1/2-inch thick rounds. You will need 8 slices in total.
Arrange sweet potato slices on a baking sheet. Brush with avocado oil and bake for 25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are tender and slightly golden.
In a large bowl, mix the ground pork with fennel seeds, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper until fully combined.
Heat 1 tablespoon of coconut oil in a skillet over medium heat. Shape the pork mixture into 4 patties and cook in the skillet for 4-5 minutes per side, or until fully cooked.
In another skillet, heat the remaining coconut oil over medium-low heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet, sprinkle with nutritional yeast, and cook until the whites are set but the yolks are still slightly runny, about 3-4 minutes.
To assemble the sandwiches, place a sweet potato slice on a plate, top with a sausage patty, a dollop of cashew cheese, a few leaves of spinach, a fried egg, some chopped green onion, and finally another sweet potato slice.
Repeat the process for the remaining sandwiches and serve immediately.
