Preheat a medium non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Add the low sodium bacon slices to the skillet and cook until they are crispy, about 5 minutes, turning halfway through. Once cooked, remove the bacon and set it aside on paper towels to drain excess fat.
While the bacon is cooking, cut each whole wheat roll in half horizontally. Spread each half with 1/2 tablespoon of unsalted butter.
In the same skillet used for the bacon, add the spinach and sauté for about 2 minutes until wilted. Remove the spinach and set aside.
Crack the eggs into a bowl, add black pepper, and whisk together. Pour the eggs into the skillet and cook on low heat, gently stirring with a spatula to scramble them, until just set, about 3 minutes.
Spread 1 tablespoon of low-sodium cream cheese on the bottom half of each roll.
Layer the spinach, scrambled eggs, and bacon slices on top of the cream cheese.
Place the top half of each roll over the filling, gently pressing down.
Serve immediately while warm and enjoy your delicious, health-conscious breakfast treat.
