Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove and set on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.
While the bacon cooks, slice the tomato into thin slices and set aside. Split the English muffins and lightly toast them.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat and melt the butter. Pour in the egg mixture. Cook gently, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are scrambled and just set, about 3-4 minutes.
Assemble the sandwiches: Spread 1 teaspoon of mayonnaise on the bottom half of each toasted English muffin (add hot sauce if desired). Layer with baby spinach, sliced tomato, scrambled eggs, a slice of cheddar cheese, and crispy bacon. Top with the other half of the English muffin.
Serve immediately while warm and enjoy your Wake Up Sandwich!
