Mentsuyu Hitori Meshi (Japanese: めんつゆひとり飯; lit. One Meal with Mentsuyu) is a Japanese manga series by Mizuki Setoguchi. It was serialized in the monthly seinen manga magazine Manga Life from December 18, 2016, to the magazine's final issue on July 27, 2022. After Manga Life became defunct, the series was serialized in Essay Sasakureru, where it ran until November 11, 2024, before being moved to Manga Life Original.

A live-action television drama adaptation was broadcast on BS Shochiku Tokyu for two seasons from April 1, 2023, to December 25, 2024.

Tsuyu Mendō, an office employee, is lazy and finds it a chore to cook every day. To cut down on cooking steps, she uses mentsuyu, a condiment for noodles, as a base for the meals she prepares. The comic follows different ways of how she incorporates mentsuyu into her dishes, with recipes at the end of every chapter.[1]
