I grew up in rural Nebraska and our small-town grocery store had farmers cheese. I was shocked at how hard it is to find around here! I did notice it at the deli counter in Kroger the other day (not packaged with the kraft cheeses like it was growing up).

Whenever I need a recipe, I go to www.allrecipes.com. You can search by recipe name, or you can click on "ingredients" at the top and type in things you have and it will being up recipes you can make! Everything is rated, so I suggest not even looking at anything that doesn't have 4 or 5 stars.

Farmers cheese is a mild white cheese so you might be able to substitute a white american or even munster would probably work. They have farmers cheese in our small grocery stores deli section, your deli might even be able to get it in if you ask them.

From what I've read, you can substitute an equal amount of large curd cottage cheese for the farmer's cheese.
