    What makes you full and what makes others full will vary. I tend to experiment keep notes about which foods fill me up and which don't. Typically, calorie dense, less volume, less fibre foods will be less filling.
    Carbs like syrups, jams, juice, dried fruit, white bread, bagels, pasta (for some), muffins
    Fats like nuts, seeds, nut butters, oils, granola, avocado, full fat dairy, ice cream.
    Higher fat cuts of protein such as chicken thighs, beef, salmon, whole eggs, etc.

    This thread can help with suggestions too

    when in doubt - add ice cream - or cheese; look to full-fat diary alternatives (instead of zero fat, go with like noosa or similar that are full fat)

    Keto fat bombs

    Nuts or nut butters

    Cliff bars or other similar bars that have pretty balanced nutrition without limiting the carbs.

    Peanut butter in a full fat yogurt (sheep milk has even more calories) or coconut yogurt.
    Dark chocolate 70% and over.
    Chocolate milk.

    I accidentally clicked on this, but I've noticed Oreos and milk go down awful easy (unfortunately for me) and have like 600+ calories for a partial sleeve of Oreos and 12-16 oz of milk.
