Steps:
1. Start by cooking the turkey bacon in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook until crispy, about 3-4 minutes on each side. Once done, remove and set aside.
2. In the same skillet, lightly coat with cooking spray or olive oil and reduce the heat to low. Pour in the egg whites, season with salt and pepper, and cook until they are firm and no longer translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
3. While the egg whites are cooking, place the low-carb bread in a toaster until golden and toasted to your preference.
4. Assemble the sandwich by placing one slice of toasted low-carb bread on a plate. Layer it with the cooked egg whites, turkey bacon, fresh spinach, and sliced avocado.
5. Top with the second slice of low-carb bread. If desired, you can cut the sandwich in half for easier eating.
6. Serve immediately and enjoy your healthy, low-carb breakfast sandwich.
