1. Make the Filling:
- Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat.

- Remove from heat and fold in ricotta. Taste and adjust seasoning.
2. Prepare the Sauce:

3. Assemble the Wraps:

- Spoon in chickpea-spinach-ricotta filling.
- Add optional toppings for crunch or freshness.
- Roll up burrito-style and slice in half.
