Rinse beans, then mash in a medium bowl and set aside.

Cut each roll (or bun or baguette) horizontally and split.
Pull out most of the soft bread from the center, leaving mostly crust.
Divide the beans, guacamole, meat mixture, cheese and onion among the sandwiches, patting everything down gently to keep it in the bread.
Spray a large skillet with nonstick spray and heat over medium heat.
Add sandwiches and place another skillet on top of them.
Place 4 cans (such as canned beans) or other weights in the medium skillet to press the sandwiches.
Cook until golden on one side, about 2 minutes.
Reduce the heat to medium-low, turn the sandwiches over, replace the top skillet and cans, and cook until the second side is golden, 1 to 3 minutes more.
(You could also cook the sandwiches in a panini maker.)
