Spinach is delicious.

It's an essential ingredient in my lunch of ham and eggs -- but it's been pricey lately.

"I can't pay 400 yen for a bunch of Komatsuna," I say, picking up the Komatsuna next to it.

Komatsuna is roughly half the price of spinach, but its taste is not as good as spinach.

So, for the komatsuna, I cut it into 1 cm pieces and saute it to obscure the flavor.

"One egg, one slice of ham, enoki mushrooms, spinach, or komatsuna greens sauteed with one crushed red pepper and one slice of toast"

This is my breakfast and lunch.

I have to keep it down to this level to keep my weight down while working from home.

By the way, if you have a mental breakdown, you can skip even this lunch.

No, this is not "okay".
