Cooking meat-free kebabs from the comfort of her own home wasn’t always the plan for Elle Sprigg, but The Vegan Grill has quickly become her pride and joy.
The 23-year-old, based in North Hykeham, started The Vegan Grill from her kitchen in February 2021, just over a year after becoming vegan herself.
Elle said that she turned vegan as she heard it could help with her asthma, and with the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic, this gave her food for thought.
