Goat Milk Ricotta

Question

I bought some artisan goat milk ricotta.  It is so dry and grainy, it felt like I was eating chalk.  I don't want to throw it out.  Any ideas about what to do with it other than lasagna?  Something maybe where the grainy texture isn't so noticeable.

Good ideas!  I haven't made blintzes in almost a decade and the eggplant rolls sounds delicious.  My orginal plan was to drizzle the ricotta with a little honey and some pinenuts, but the grainy-ness killed that idea.  Thank you for the help!

I might go an unexpected dessert-y route: maybe mix with a little creme fraiche &amp;amp; eggs and make blintzes where the sour cream on top will moisten it, or drizzle with local honey and a touch of something herb-y like rosemary and seasonal fruit--if it were later in the year I'd say figs.

I would mix in some other melty kind of cheese (mozzarella or fontina) and herbs, roll it up in baked eggplant slices, bake it and top with marinara.
