Quick Burgers

I developed those burgers in a hotel room: they're quick, easy, and require very few ingredients. (In fact, except for the beans and seasoning packet, I sources all the ingredients from the complimentary "breakfast bar") I make there burger any time I need super-fast meal or I'm really low on ingredients.
