Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 teaspoon of olive oil.
Cook the turkey bacon in the skillet for 3-4 minutes on each side until crispy. Remove and set aside on a paper towel to drain excess oil.
While the turkey bacon is cooking, toast the slices of gluten-free bread until golden brown.
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a small bowl. Mash the avocado with a fork until smooth, then mix in the salt and black pepper.
Spread the mashed avocado on one slice of toasted gluten-free bread and mayonnaise on the other slice.
Layer the lettuce, tomato slices, and cooked turkey bacon on top of the avocado-covered bread slice.
Top with the other slice of bread (mayonnaise side down).
Cut the sandwich in half or quarters as desired, and serve immediately.
