Directions

1. Place beef in a slow cooker and sprinkle with flour, tossing to coat. Add parsnips, carrots, squash, garlic, onions, and mushrooms. Do not stir. Add tomatoes, wine, broth, and Worcestershire sauce. Add pepper, thyme, herbs, and bay leaf. Top with beans.
2. Cover and cook on high until meat is tender, about 4 hours. If possible, after 2 hours, stir stew well, then replace cover and continue cooking.
