Baked ziti with the ricotta.

Farmer cheese based cheesecakes. You can make now and freeze for Shavuos!

Matzo lasagna! You will use up your leftovet matzo, too.

I've never made blintzes before. Do you have a good recipe?

The first Balabustas Choice had a recipe that I use and love. I'm at work but can send it to you later in the day.

My kids like cheese latkes made with farmer cheese. I don't know about the ricotta, but you can freeze the farmer cheese in smaller portion sizes to use for future cooking.

Cheese Blintz Recipe from Balabustas Choice:
Crepes:
2 eggs
3 tbsp sugar
11/2 tbsp oil
Pinch of salt
1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup milk

Filling :
1 pound cottage cheese
1 7 1/2 oz. farmer cheese
1/4-1/2 Cup sugar
1 vanilla sugar
Dash of cinnamon

Crepes: Beat eggs lightly with fork

Mix with sugar, oil , and salt. Add flour, and mix until smooth. Add milk while mixing constantly until smooth .
(I personally use a stick blender to do the mixing of the batter)
Heat drop of oil in frying pan. Pour 2-3 Tbsps of batter into heated pan and fry on both sides, until slightly colored and golden.

Filling: Combine all ingredients and mix ( do this with a spoon)
Place spoonful of filling in the center of each crepe and roll up blintz style.

I have found I need to double the crepe recipe usually.
The original recipe yields : 8-10 blintzes
