HEALTHY High Calorie Foods

Hi everyone!
I recently re-evaluated my goals and found that I should be eating about 300 calories more per day than I was. I went from 1500 to 1800.
I am having a hard time finding foods that are still healthful, but higher in calories. I have basically cut out bread from my diet - I do have a bagel from time to time if I wasn't able to grab breakfast from home before I go to work. Most of what I eat is meat, vegetables and dairy.
I cut out peanut butter before because it was so high calorie, so I plan to re-introduce peanut butter, but what are some other higher calorie foods that you enjoy that are still HEALTHY?
