Mock Hamburgers

This is a money saving recipe from Grandma Margaret that was featured in Woman's World magazine, 7/19/10 issue which hit the stands this week-end. The description said they are crisp and crusty on the outside and moist on the inside. I am posting the recipe here for safe keeping as I haven't yet made it.
