Might want to take a look at the Mikrotik wiki for outbound load sharing strategies [1]. Firewall marking + mangle might be the right way to go here. Exactly what to configure would require more context about what else these routers are doing (NAT/firewalling/etc.).

Presumably if you're doing BGP traffic engineering you're already aware, but I would take care to make sure that your outbound load sharing strategy matches on the same source-address prefixes as your BGP-announced prefixes. Otherwise, you might get asymmetric return traffic from the internet.
