  3. Warm wraps: Heat spelt wraps in a dry pan for 20–30 seconds per side until pliable.
  4. Assemble wraps: Spread hummus or sauce over each wrap. Add lettuce, cucumber, tomatoes, onion, sliced chicken, and cheese if using.
  5. Wrap and serve: Fold in the sides, roll tightly, and slice in half. Serve immediately or wrap in parchment for meal prep.
