Here are some more ideas. I was VERY aware of my fish intake due to the mercury issues, but I definately limited my canned tuna intake (1-2 cans a month MAX) but fresh or smoked salmon or other fishes are ok.
Most of these things I got the calorie #'s off the package depending on how much I ate.
-Smoked salmon with vegetable flavored crackers and cheese
-Pizza (Greasy for a CFer, but an idea as it's an easy meal/snack)- 3 slices of most pizza's is about 800 calories!
-cottage cheest (1 cup equals 210 calories, throw in fresh fruit or jam and even more!)
-AVACADO!!!!! Amazing fats and about 400 calories for a whole one! (I personally dipped mine in Zezty Italian salad dressing for better flavor!)
-Ice Cream of course, Ben and Jerry's seems to have the HIGHEST calorie per serv.
-Peanut butter on/in anything you can stand (celery sticks, sandwich, crackers, plain)
-Ranch dressing for dipping veggies
-French dip sandwich
-Yogurt
-Rice or Rice-a-roni with a meal
-Oatmeal (flavored or orig.), 2 packages of peaches and cream oatmeal is 260 calories, if you use milk instead of water you can have even more!
-Omlett
-Egg Salad Sandwich
-Chicken (BBQ, george foreman if you have one, grilled in the oven, baked in the oven...)- 1 chicken breast has about 250 calories in it
-Marie Calendars Fettucini alfredo frozen dinner.... 630 CALORIES!!!!!
-10 frozen potstickers (kind you can get at costco/safeway)-520 calories!!!
-Potatoe salad
-McDonalds chocolate/strawberry/vanilla shake. Has lots of sodium in it, but shouldn't be a problem for you as a CFer. I had about 2-3 a week for a while. Something like 500+ calories!!!
-2 String cheeses have 160 calories, add crackers and a cup of milk and you are at about 350-400 calories for a snack
-Spaghetti is good for the calories in the noodles and in the meat if you add your own hamburger meat!
-Somedays a hot dog sounded good, about 160 calories PLUS the bun at about 200 calories, for about 360-400 in a snack, add milk and you are at about 500-600 caloires!!!
-10 mcDonalds nuggets (usually the meal on the way to dr.s appointments only!) 420 calories (some from fat, not the healthiest meal but delicious and full of calories) Add small fries at about 350 calories, again mostly from fat but a good occasional indulgence.
-hamburger helper from a box is good on nights or afternoons when you are exhausted and need a quick meal.
-McFlurry has 640 calories in it!
-BLT sandwich, bread, meat, mayonase totals about 550 calories!
-1 cup most orange juices 120 calories
-1.5 tbsp of mayonase is 135 calories!!!!!
-2 peices KFC chicken is about 520 calories
-I personally LOVED hobo stew when I was pregnant, hamburger, cut up onion, potatoe, carrot, bake in oven or on BBQ in aluminum foil, serve with ketsup, about 600 calories depending on amount of hamburger and veggies! Easy to prepare, about 1hr to cook.
-Baked beans, about 1/2 of a medium sized can is 245 calories... GREAT source of calories
-Flavored bagle is about 250 calories, add some meat or cream cheese and a glass of milk for more calories....
-homemade pudding (calories dependent on brand/flavor)
-Canned chilli, about 425 calories
-Muffin, about 350-400 calories
-Macaroni and cheese (I did a lot of the boxed stuff when pregnant!!!) is about 500 calories for 1/2 a box after you add butter, milk and cheese flavor
-Grape nuts cereal, 1svg about 200 calories, I mixed mine in with flavored yogurt and didn't even notice the NASTY grape nuts taste!!!
-Pork chops with rice
-Chips and salsa for a non-nutritious snack, calories in the chips though, or use cheese dip of somesort for MORE calories!
-Spaghetti o's (I CRAVED these while pregnant) 1 can is 360 calories, then I'd have 1 glass of milk and a small Optimum nutrition brand protein shake (gulp down in 1-2 sips, filled a small glass!)
-Sirolin tips with rice
-Starbucks frappucino (tall strawberry) has 420 calories in it!!!
Hope this gives you some ideas. ON days that I was only craving things with fat although high in calories, I would have 1-3 protein shakes scattered throughout the day. I am a VERY picky eater and HIGHLY recommend Optimum nutrition brand protein powder. I use 1-2 scoops (1 scoop is 24g of protein) in a SMALL size cup with hot or cold water (hot water makes it taste like hot cocoa!) usually spread out, like 1 in the AM, 1 at lunch, 1 before bed... to make sure I was getting enough protein too.

-Baked beans, about 1/2 of a medium sized can is 245 calories... GREAT source of calories
-Flavored bagle is about 250 calories, add some meat or cream cheese and a glass of milk for more calories....
-homemade pudding (calories dependent on brand/flavor)
-Canned chilli, about 425 calories
-Muffin, about 350-400 calories
-Macaroni and cheese (I did a lot of the boxed stuff when pregnant!!!) is about 500 calories for 1/2 a box after you add butter, milk and cheese flavor
-Grape nuts cereal, 1svg about 200 calories, I mixed mine in with flavored yogurt and didn't even notice the NASTY grape nuts taste!!!
-Pork chops with rice
-Chips and salsa for a non-nutritious snack, calories in the chips though, or use cheese dip of somesort for MORE calories!
-Spaghetti o's (I CRAVED these while pregnant) 1 can is 360 calories, then I'd have 1 glass of milk and a small Optimum nutrition brand protein shake (gulp down in 1-2 sips, filled a small glass!)
-Sirolin tips with rice
-Starbucks frappucino (tall strawberry) has 420 calories in it!!!
Hope this gives you some ideas. ON days that I was only craving things with fat although high in calories, I would have 1-3 protein shakes scattered throughout the day. I am a VERY picky eater and HIGHLY recommend Optimum nutrition brand protein powder. I use 1-2 scoops (1 scoop is 24g of protein) in a SMALL size cup with hot or cold water (hot water makes it taste like hot cocoa!) usually spread out, like 1 in the AM, 1 at lunch, 1 before bed... to make sure I was getting enough protein too.
Most of these things I got the calorie #'s off the package depending on how much I ate.
-Smoked salmon with vegetable flavored crackers and cheese
-Pizza (Greasy for a CFer, but an idea as it's an easy meal/snack)- 3 slices of most pizza's is about 800 calories!
-cottage cheest (1 cup equals 210 calories, throw in fresh fruit or jam and even more!)
-AVACADO!!!!! Amazing fats and about 400 calories for a whole one! (I personally dipped mine in Zezty Italian salad dressing for better flavor!)
-Ice Cream of course, Ben and Jerry's seems to have the HIGHEST calorie per serv.
-Peanut butter on/in anything you can stand (celery sticks, sandwich, crackers, plain)
-Ranch dressing for dipping veggies
-French dip sandwich
-Yogurt
-Rice or Rice-a-roni with a meal
-Oatmeal (flavored or orig.), 2 packages of peaches and cream oatmeal is 260 calories, if you use milk instead of water you can have even more!
-Omlett
-Egg Salad Sandwich
-Chicken (BBQ, george foreman if you have one, grilled in the oven, baked in the oven...)- 1 chicken breast has about 250 calories in it
-Marie Calendars Fettucini alfredo frozen dinner.... 630 CALORIES!!!!!
-10 frozen potstickers (kind you can get at costco/safeway)-520 calories!!!
-Potatoe salad
-McDonalds chocolate/strawberry/vanilla shake. Has lots of sodium in it, but shouldn't be a problem for you as a CFer. I had about 2-3 a week for a while. Something like 500+ calories!!!
-2 String cheeses have 160 calories, add crackers and a cup of milk and you are at about 350-400 calories for a snack
-Spaghetti is good for the calories in the noodles and in the meat if you add your own hamburger meat!
-Somedays a hot dog sounded good, about 160 calories PLUS the bun at about 200 calories, for about 360-400 in a snack, add milk and you are at about 500-600 caloires!!!
-10 mcDonalds nuggets (usually the meal on the way to dr.s appointments only!) 420 calories (some from fat, not the healthiest meal but delicious and full of calories) Add small fries at about 350 calories, again mostly from fat but a good occasional indulgence.
-hamburger helper from a box is good on nights or afternoons when you are exhausted and need a quick meal.
-McFlurry has 640 calories in it!
-BLT sandwich, bread, meat, mayonase totals about 550 calories!
-1 cup most orange juices 120 calories
