Cooking instruction summary:

Heat oven to 400F. Place the pepper halves cut-side down on a parchment-lined baking pan in a single layer. Place in the oven and bake for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare the filling. Cut the kernels from the ears of corn. Toss in a large bowl with 1 cup of the tomatoes, the rice, 2 tbsp of the cilantro, pint nuts, cream cheese, lime juice, salt, and Monterey Jack cheese. Once the peppers are done baking, remove the pan from the oven and flip over the peppers. Divide the rice mixture evenly among the chile peppers, stuffing them as much as possible. Return to the oven and bake for 7 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven again and sprinkle the queso fresco over the peppers. Bake for 5-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melty and starting to brown. Remove from the oven and divide among 5 plates. Sprinkle with the remaining tomatoes and cilantro before serving.

Food Joke

John invited his mother over for dinner. During the meal, his mother couldn't help noticing how attractive and shapely the housekeeper was. Over the course of the evening, she started to wonder if there was more between John and the housekeeper than met the eye. Reading his mom's thoughts, John volunteered, "I know what you must be thinking, but I assure you, my relationship with my housekeeper is purely professional." About a week later, the housekeeper came to John and said, "Ever since your mother came to dinner, I've been unable to find the beautiful silver gravy ladle. You don't suppose she took it, do you?" John said, "Well, I doubt it, but I'll write her a letter just to be sure." So he sat down and wrote: "Dear Mother, I'm not saying you 'did' take a gravy ladle from my house, and I'm not saying you 'did not' take a gravy ladle. But the fact remains that one has been missing ever since you were here for dinner." Several days later, John received a letter from his mother which said "Dear Son, I'm not saying that you 'do' sleep with your housekeeper, and I'm not saying that you 'do not' sleep with your housekeeper. But the fact remains that if she were sleeping in her own bed, she would have found the gravy ladle by now. Love, Mom"
