How to make Blackstone Caprese Stuffed Zucchini

First step is to cut two medium-size zucchini in half lengthwise and scoop out some of the center.

Then preheat your Blackstone or flat top griddle to medium heat.

Add some cooking oil of choice, a pint of cherry or grape tomatoes, kosher salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.

Flip the zucchini over and season with kosher salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.

I am using my favorite Blackstone Tuscan Herb seasoning.

Sprinkle mozzarella cheese on the zucchini and cover with a melting dome.

Add balsamic vinegar to the tomatoes and cook both for 2 to 3 more minutes.
