Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until translucent.
Add minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the lean ground turkey to the skillet, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon.
Cook the turkey, stirring frequently, until it is no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes.
Stir in the low-sodium soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and black pepper. Mix well and cook for an additional 2 minutes until the sauce is absorbed.
Divide the cooked brown rice and baby spinach leaves among four bowls.
Top each bowl with an equal portion of the cooked turkey mixture.
Add cherry tomatoes, avocado slices, cucumber slices, and red onion to each bowl around the turkey and rice.
Sprinkle crumbled feta cheese over each bowl.
Drizzle each bowl with balsamic vinaigrette just before serving.
