The Elvirrito is somethin I whipped up for friends this past summer. It's easy, muy delicioso, perfect for breakfast or dessert, and ideal for the King's 75th birthday.

All you need for one Elvirrito: A large flour tortilla, peanut butter (crunchy or wimpy), a banana, regular butter, a skillet or a griddle heated up for fryin.

Peel the banana (in case you never dealt with a banana before) then slice it real thin in rounds or longways.

Spread peanut butter (not too thick) on tortilla, covering 2/3 of it.

Lay out the banana slices on 'bout half the PB covered area.

Roll up the whole thing like you would a burrito, the banana and peanut butter end rollin towards the part with no peanut butter. (If you ain’t ever rolled your own burritos take a look round the Internet, there’s gotta be a how-to.)

Spread some regular butter on both sides of the rolled up thing.

Put a little butter in the skillet or on the griddle just because. Then put on the Elvirrito (seam side down) and fry it until it’s golden and crispy then flip it and fry that side the same way.

Serve right away. The Elvirrito...It’s an almost ethnic meal fit for the King!

(If you made the Elvirrito for dessert you can put some whip cream on top just so folks know it’s dessert. Elvis wouldn't mind)
