    Almonds. A cup of those will give you around or over a thousand calories and some protein and fiber too. I ate plain roasted ones in my last bulk.

    One suggestion would be to make a big batch of chicken curry, chilli con carne or spaghetti bolognaise, load it up with a load of veg, lentils, chick peas and have it with either rice, potato, pasta or spaghetti with a glass or two of full fat milk and that should net between 1,000 - 1,150 calories for one meal.

    For breakfast, go with 3 scoops of porridge, 4 scoops of full fat milk, banana or whatever fruit you want, a scoop of flaxseed or millseed or sunflower or if you can get all 3, do, a tablespoon of jam. Should get you nearly 1,000 calories.
    For the rest of the day, as @nakedraygun said, almonds are great as are cashews.
    If you are struggling with eating that much food, drink some of the calories like a shake.
    A suggestion would be to pre-log the day as much as you can so you know what you are eating, when and how much.
    I'm on a 1,000 more than you and I more or less do it this way.

    1,000 calorie shake will do it. Two of those ans food you will hit over 3,000 plus cals. I make my shakes, one scoop of weight gainer, milk, cup of blackberries, 2 tbsp of peanut butter, 1/2 cup of raw oats

    Peanut butter and Ice cream. A "clean" bulk has 0 to do with the food you eat and all to do with the amount of surplus.

    I've tried putting in raw oats into the shake but it never tastes right.

    That would depend on the fast food place in question. McDonalds no. Burger King, yes, especially their double bacon cheeseburger.

    Just eat a third of what this guy eats and you'll be fine.
