Grape-Nuts Burgers

I got this from a vegetarian cooking show. It is very simple but really good. My family loves them and my neighbor, who is not a vegetarian enjoyed them too. I have always loved grape-nuts and this is a good way to use them. Prep time is time to sit in fridge overnight. Cooking time includes both the browning time and the time if you decide to bake them in the oven with the spaghetti sauce.
