Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Arrange baguette slices in a single layer on a cookie sheet. Place in the preheated oven, and bake for about 5 minutes or until lightly toasted. Remove from the oven, and allow to cool.

Season the ground beef with mesquite seasoning, and mix lightly. Form tablespoonfuls of dough into mini burger patties. Season the patties with a little salt and pepper.

Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook patties for 1 to 2 minutes per side, or until browned and well done.

Place baguette slices on a large serving tray, and top each one with a piece of romaine leaf. Then place a mini burger on each one, and top with tomato slices. Apply ketchup and mustard before serving.
