    Just for the sake of saving money I would recommend reducing your protein intake per meal. Also I notice that you have a serious lack of legumes. Legumes are high in folate (folic acid), which is essential in the creation of new cells, muscle tissue being the cells of particular relevance here. The great thing about legumes are that they are so low in protein, calories, carbohydrates and fat that adding them into your preexisting meals will not disrupt your macros enough to be of concern.

    Here is a great list of legumes that you can find at your local grocery store:

    Adzuki Beans
    Black Beans
    Black-eyed peas
    Broad Beans (Fava Beans)
    Butter Beans
    Calico Beans
    Cannellini Beans
    Chickpeas (Garbanzo Beans)
    Edamame
    Great Northern Beans
    Italian Beans
    Kidney Beans
    Lentils
    Lima Beans
    Mung Beans
    Navy Beans
    Pinto Beans

    Finally I'd like to recommend trading all of that extra protein for a quality casein protein supplement and consuming around 40g of protein just before bedtime. This is an excellent way to avoid allowing your body to reach a catabolic state while you sleep, thus adding even more lean muscle tissue to your bulking phase.
    ^^^That's complete broscience. This subject has been beaten to death on here but there are many studies that prove it's not true. Look into intermittent fasting.
