Chalet Style Cooking

Get dry goods that will keep a long time without refrigeration (beans, rice, lentils, etc.)
Dry spices, bullion cubes, etc, to add flavor.
Canned food is a given.
Old-fashioned cured meats (ham, bacon, etc.) can be stored for a long time at room temperature.

Is your cabin in a somewhat remote area so that you can supplement your food by hunting and/or fishing?

Fishing is accessible and easygoing after a hard day's work, hunting & trapping is possible but too time consuming...

Hare and fowl is abundant here...

Not much to improve on here, other than to say that you should use close to 100% of your freezer space for meats (you will be able to get more lb/ft^2 with ground meats), and use a good portion of your fridge space for fresh mostly green vegetables and maybe fruits. They may not be as calorie rich, but if you don't have some roughage in you diet you'll regret it when it comes time to take a shit.

Do you have a lot of sunlight? I would look in to getting (or building) a solar cooker.

Looking at them, I think it would be pretty easy to construct with aluminum foil and cardboard, or polished stainless steel, or those reflectors people use in the cars.

Pic related, this thing sells for $100 on amazon.

We have a propane stove and a small generator that we mostly run during evenings to watch the news and browse 4chan on a shitty satellite connection.

What I'm really looking for is recipes, I'm already versed in foods that keep long, just we've already been here a month and I'm running out of original ideas...

I'd build a cold smoker (basically like an old fashioned outhouse, could run it up in a few hours) and spend a day catching a shitload of fish, salting for 24 hours and cold smoking for 3 -5 days. That will keep forever in a northern climate. Cold smoking is just adding some wood to keep a smoky environment, like when you take a break just make sure it's still smoking. In the future you'll use that for much of your food especially if you raise a couple hogs.
