Red Kidney Beans Creole style

This inspired by one of the creole recipe I saw and veganized it. It also non-spicy since I feed it to my kids. I don't have creole mix seasoning as most of them in a store contain MSG.

Oil
1 lg Onion
6 stalks Celery
1 lg Bell pepper
5 cloves of Garlic
1 lb bag of dry Red Kidney beans
1 tsp Liquid smoke
1 tbsp veg worchester sauce

Soak the beans over night. Then cook till tender.

Add the cooked beans. Bring to boil and turn the heat low.
Add all spices, liquid smoke, worchester.
Salt to taste.
Take out the Bay leaves and serve over hot cooked rice. Brown or white.
