Attempting to put a meal together one night that I had ZERO prep for. (Long day at work, you know the days)

For quick meals, I had frozen burger patties... With an English muffin being the closest thing to bread I could find.

All of a sudden I had this memory that the Bob's burger cook book had a burger using an English muffin as the bun and that could be an exciting way to jazz up a frozen burger.

Sure enough I found the Eggers Can't Be Choosers Burger from season 3 episode 11 of Bob's Burgers.

Made a few adjustments and voila! It was a tasty but quick dinner.

The finished burger looks boring but I assure you it was tasty.

Only thing I wish I did differently was more siracha sauce (only hot sauce I had) as it got lost in against the other flavors. But notes for next time will hopefully trigger that memory.

This is an egg free recipe so a large batch can be made and stored in the fridge all season without fear of it going bad!
