Get ready for a glamour spectacular featuring the music of Elvis Presley, high-kicking show girls, outrageous costumes and all the glitz of Las Vegas, right here in Bris Vegas when Bertie Page presents the Lucky Legs Las Vegas Revue.
In honour of the King of Rock & Roll, Bertie selects her favourite Elvis recipes.
1. Assorted fruits on white cotton panties
Late in life Elvis enjoyed saucy food romps with young playmates clad only in white cotton underwear. Use your imagination.

2. Good ol' fashion meatloaf
Meatloaf is perfect for any occasion. His music is also excellent. Boom tish. Cheap and easy to prepare, just mash up a bunch of meat, breadcrumbs and various sauces. Bake and serve with pickles on the side. Guaranteed to induce a heart attack.3. Fool's gold loaf
This is the legendary super Elvis snack. Grab a hollowed out loaf of bread, push in a jar each of peanut butter and jam, plus a pound of bacon. In 1976 he flew some friends to Denver in his private jet just for one of these from his favourite restaurant, making it the most expensive late-night munchies run in history.
4. Biscuits
No, not what we understand as biscuits. American biscuits are just large chunks of flour, buttermilk, various fats and salt. Bake these nuggets of pure-weight-gain gold in a tray then drown with gravy. Good for any and every meal. What could go wrong? Elvis loved these so much he took his grandmother with him to Germany during military service so he wouldn't go without.
5. Sleeping beauty coma diet
Ok not a recipe but a serious proposal for weight loss. What you do, see, is get yourself put into a medically-induced coma so you can't be tempted by all those delicious snacks. Luckily he didn't last long on this as he fell out of bed.{youtube}vicMzpjKGSc{/youtube}
