I have a love/hate thing going on with vegetable dishes. I love making pico de gallo to layer in homemade tortilla. I love chopping up a big bowl of crunch salad. But I hate all of the slicing and dicing required to achieve perfectly uniform pieces. So, when the Fullstar Vegetable Chopper started trending on TikTok, I knew I had to try it out. FYI, it's 40 percent off on Amazon for Presidents' Day weekend, so you can buy it at a big discount.
The marked down food chopper comes with four interchangeable stainless-steel blades for dicing and spiralizing (we see you, pesto zoodles). The large dice blade is great for hard fruits and veggies, like potatoes, while the small dice blade is perfect for dicing onions, which was what I was most excited to try.
Even with the sharpest knives, I still shed tears while dicing onions the old-fashioned way. The Fullstar Vegetable Chopper made the experience so much more enjoyable. While there's still some knife work involved (veggies need to be cut into smaller pieces before going in the chopper), nothing beats perfectly uniform diced onions.
The 1.2-quart catch tray makes it easy to measure ingredients while keeping your workspace tidy. The brushes that come with the chopper make it easy to clean out any food chunks that may get stuck in the blades. Afterwards, it can be disassembled and placed in the top rack of the dishwasher for easy cleaning.
This kitchen gadget is about the same size as a knife block. It's a time-saving, versatile addition to any kitchen and makes meal prep a breeze. From the best-ever guacamole and summery caprese zoodles to a Mediterranean chickpea salad, we have plenty of veggie-heavy recipes to put your favorite kitchen gadget to work. Who knew healthy cooking could be so easy?
If you're looking for a different kind of food chopper—maybe something less manual or one that can slice instead of dice—we've got you covered. Shop our favorite choppers and mandolines on the market.
