Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place the low sodium turkey bacon slices in the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until crispy. Remove from heat and set aside.
While the bacon cooks, toast the slices of whole-grain bread until lightly golden brown.
In a small bowl, mash the avocado with a fork until smooth. Stir in the Greek yogurt, dried oregano, and black pepper to create a creamy spread.
Spread the avocado mixture evenly onto one side of each slice of toasted bread.
On one slice of bread, layer the lettuce leaves, tomato slices, and cooked turkey bacon.
Top with the second slice of bread, avocado side down, to form the sandwich.
Cut the sandwich in half, if desired, and serve immediately.
