  • hello samantha! i am also on the same mission. you can try these foods, which have helped me a lot :)

    Nuts - almonds and cashews are nice!
    Yoghurts - you can go for low fat ones. they are easy to eat and quite high in calories
    Avocados
    Bananas
  • increasing portion sizes, adding cheese and oils to dishes, adding nuts e.g in stir fry, having a piece of bread on the side

    Not trying to gain but I was just looking at some hummingbird cake recipes and most were 500 calories per slice! ouch!
