Whole Wheat Quinoa Cakes

CakeSpy Note: OMG! The 46th Annual Pillsbury Bake-Off is coming! Since I so deeply loved attending the 45th Bake-Off, I thought I would get you excited early by sharing some of the finalists' recipes. Do I need to tell you that the winner will receive one million dollars? My posting is on hyperdrive since the event is less than a week a day--check back often, because I will be posting three recipes a day until the big event! You can follow them by clicking the bakeoff tag below the post to see which ones have been posted so far. Enjoy! 

Listen. I was tempted to drive right on by this recipe, because it sounded awfully healthy. But then I learned it had sweetened condensed milk. Back in the game! Thanks for including something tasty that also has healthy grains, Lynn Connors of Thornton, Pennsylvania!
