A food slicer comprises a storage reservoir, a cutting blade housing with cutting blade therein and a top lid. The reservoir, housing and top lid are releasably connected to each other by complementary hinges. A cutting blade comprises a frame having a plurality of cutting wires spanning the frame is releasably engageable within the cutting blade housing. Upon placement of a food product on the cutting blade, downward pressure of the open lid urges the food product passed the cutting blade wires, the resulting food product slices falling in the storage reservoir therebelow. The storage reservoir is releasably engageable from the cutting blade housing to enable the reservoir to be used as a separate serving and/or baking dish. A releasable engagement of the cutting blade with the cutting blade housing allows for a plurality of variously configured cutting blades to be utilized.
