Toss to coat. *i always brown my meat in pan prior to putting in slow cooker* Put the garlic, carrots and parsnips in the slow cooker.

I wouldnt worry too much rolznsp. I would say a big percentage of recipes on here are from cooking books and Im sure it doesnt stop any of us from buying recipe books. I use this thread alot and have recently bought 4 new books. If anything Im sure if anything people would be more inclined to go out and buy the book because they like the look of the recipes you posted.
