1. Start by preparing the bacon. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and cook the bacon slices until crispy, about 3-5 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Set aside.
2. While the bacon cooks, halve the avocado, remove the seed, and carefully scoop out the flesh with a spoon. Slice each half into thin strips and set aside.
3. Bring a medium saucepan of water to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Add the white vinegar to the water.
4. Crack one egg into a small bowl or ramekin. Using a spoon, create a gentle whirlpool in the simmering water, then carefully pour the egg into the center of the whirlpool. Let the egg cook for 3-4 minutes or until the whites are set but the yolk is still runny. Remove the egg with a slotted spoon and place it on a plate lined with a paper towel. Repeat with the second egg.
5. In the same skillet used for the bacon, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the baby spinach and sauté for 1-2 minutes or until just wilted. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
6. To assemble, divide the sautéed spinach between two plates. Fan out half of the avocado slices on each plate, then top each with two slices of crispy bacon and a poached egg.
7. Sprinkle the remaining salt and black pepper over the eggs and avocado, and serve immediately.
