    Live Well Tips<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    • Tinaktak is a popular comfort dish from Guam and may have originated from the sound of chopping meat: tak! tak! tak!<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Typically made with beef, this version uses lean turkey that is lower in saturated fat.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Use canned or frozen string beans instead of fresh.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<\/div>\r\n\n<\/div>\n\n
