Calorie dense, healthy foods? Please help!!!

[Richard Cabeza]

I need to increase my calorie intake to bulk during my first cycle, problem is for so long ive been eating high quantities of food that allow me to hit my macros but stay at a fairly low maintenance, 23-2600 cals

I want to bump this up another 1-1500 cals but of quality foods, my protein is already high, i know i need more carbs and healthy fats, so my question is what are some good solid calorie dense carb and healthy fat sources so i don't have to add too much food to my already 6 meals lol

Here's a copy of what i posted previously on this, i will not be doing 2 a days anymore, only fasted cardio and midmorning/noon workout

I've been trying to recalculate this for the past few days and i just can't put anything solid together that doesn't seem like waaay too much food, my habits are holding me back on this one. I know i need to replace some proteins with fats and a few more carbs for sure.

Add rice, peanuts, almonds, even little dark chocolate won't hurt. Sweet potatoes are a life saver when bulking.

Natural pb

Thats gonna be a fuckload of pb lol .... here's what I've added so far

2 large bananas
2 tbsp almond butter
2 cups pineapple
2 cups strawberries
Kodiak cakes (protein pancakes)
Dextrose
I want to stay away from rice but I've added 1 cup basmati
And 1 sweet potato

You think this would be enough?

Nuts!!! Good one, adding that too !

Sweet potatoes are my go to source of complex carbs. I eat 'em during bulk, cut, or maintenance. I just adjust the quantity.
