Suggestions for bulking/ gaining weight

Options
I am currently 130 around 10 percent body fat, and I want to bulk up. Any suggestions on foods with high calories that aren’t as filling. Thanks

    Anything high fat like nuts, cream, butter, nut butters, use olive oil on veg and salads, dip sourdough into olive oil, full fat milk, avocados, fattier cuts of meat, curries made with full fat coconut milk, biscuits, cake, flapjack, Nutella….if you really can’t get the calories in, try a dirty protein shake (protein powder, full fat milk, peanut butter, full fat Greek yoghurt and chocolate chips - bananas working there too). You can get a good few hundred calories in one shake if you plan it properly.
