Why I Stopped Buying Wegmans Kale & Quinoa Cakes (and make them myself instead)

Here’s a little breakfast hack I’m loving right now. I first grabbed the Kale & Quinoa Cakes from Wegmans on one of those busy mornings when I needed something quick but still wanted it to feel healthy. They were delicious, light, filling, and a nice change from the usual.

While scrolling through their website over the weekend, I discovered that Wegmans actually shares the recipe for the very same cakes. 🙌🏾 You know I had to try it. Now, instead of buying the pre-made version, I make a big batch myself and freeze them!

I used the King Arthur Hamburger Bun and Mini Pie pan (affiliate link) to create the round shape. This is my go-to pan. It’s perfect for everyday baking!

Why I Make Them at Home

• 💵 It saves money (those little prepared packs add up fast).
• 🧑🏽‍🍳 I can customize them—more seasoning for me, a little less spice for the kids.
• 🥬 They’re fresh and wholesome because I know exactly what’s going in.

How I Serve Them

These cakes are perfect for breakfast with sausage on the side (or inside them). I plan on cooking a batch on the weekend, freezing them, and reheating during the week. Quick, easy, and way better for our budget than grabbing store-made every time. Especially, now the kids are back in school!

A Tip for You
