" A luxurious vacation may not be in the cards right now, but this meal will make you feel as if you&amp;#039;re on holiday in the South Pacific. Invite your guy over for a romantic escape from your usual dinner date. Decorate the table with tropical colors, put on a flowy dress, and if you feel like getting really festive, tuck a flower in your hair. Between the sweet and spicy flavors, rum punch, and summer heat, things are bound to get steamy.  Macadamia Nut-Crusted Tilapia with Pineapple Salsa The macadamia-nut crust adds a nice crunch, and the pineapple salsa has just the right balance of spicy and sweet flavors. For fish: 1/2 cup all-purpose flour 1 egg, lightly beaten 1 cup crushed macadamia nuts 2 tilapia fillets (about 3 to 4 ounces each) For salsa: 1 cup finely chopped fresh pineapple 1 tablespoon minced red onion 1/2 jalape\u00F1o, seeds removed, minced 1/4 cup minced cilantro Salt and pepper Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Put flour, egg, and nuts in three separate shallow dishes. Dredge each fillet first in flour, then egg, then nuts. Place on oiled baking sheet. Bake 12 to 14 minutes, until golden brown. While fish is baking, make the salsa. Combine pineapple, onion, jalape\u00F1o, and cilantro. Season with salt and pepper. Serve with fish. The fish is done when it is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Speedy Sesame Snow Peas 1 cup snow peas 1 teaspoon unsalted butter 1/2 teaspoon sesame seeds Salt and pepper Rinse snow peas but don&amp;#039;t dry. Place in a microwavable bowl, and microwave on high for 45 seconds. Stir in butter, sesame seeds, and salt and pepper. Cilantro-Lime Rice Add 1 tablespoon lime juice to the water when preparing 1/2 cup long-grain white rice (use package directions), then when done, stir in 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro.
