Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly spray with olive oil spray.
Add the turkey bacon to the skillet. Cook each side for about 3-4 minutes or until crispy. Remove from the skillet and set aside on a paper towel to drain excess oil.
While the bacon is cooking, toast the whole grain bread slices to your liking.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg whites with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Once the bacon is done, reduce the skillet heat to low and again lightly spray with olive oil.
Pour the egg whites into the skillet. Cook gently, stirring occasionally, until they are fully set and cooked through. This should take about 3 minutes.
Halve the avocado, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash lightly with a fork and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Spread the mashed avocado over the toasted whole grain bread.
Serve the scrambled egg whites alongside the avocado toast and turkey bacon.
Garnish the eggs with fresh chives before serving. Enjoy your heart-healthy breakfast!
