Food Hoarders Challenge

[Olive]

Well we were out to dinner tonight but I've decided to use the lentils to make a lentil shepherds pie tomorrow night. DH isn't a mega fan of vegetarian dishes (but he will tolerate them) so I'm hoping that the fact it looks like a hearty pie will win him over.

Question: the recipe calls for a tin of lentils. Since I'm using dried lentils should I soak them or something first? (This is probably obvious to everyone else, but I rarely cook with them).

I make lentil shepards in the thermomix and my DH nd kids love it!! It's not the prettiest looking dish but it really is tasty, I don't soak the lentils as the recipe doesn't call fr them to be soaked first
