Add green bell pepper and cook until softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Add tomato, chicken stock, black beans, and corn; cook and stir until liquid is evaporated, about 10 minutes. Stir chorizo into mixture. Flip squash over and fill each half with chorizo mixture; top with Cheddar cheese. Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted, about 5 minutes. Cook's Note: Zucchini or any other summer squash can be used in place of the patty pan, if desired.
