A cup and a half of whole milk, two scoops of protein powder, and a couple tablespoons of olive oil will give you 600 calories that can be downed in no time. I do this right before bed.
Your diet looks top-heavy to me. You have a lot of calories to start the day and a lot to finish it. Between 8:30am and 7:30pm, you have a grand total of 880 calories. That’s 880 calories to last you 11 hours!
If your goal is ~3900 calories, and you space that over six meals, each meal will be nearly 650 calories. That means you’ll be eating 650 calories every three hours, like this:
Man thats classic. My family said the same thing to me. I was 6’0 and 130 pounds. 7 months later I was sitting at a lean 170. A month after that i have a morning weight of 176.
Remember you’ve never been heavier than 155 pounds because you’ve never eaten enough to be heavier than 155 pounds. Just eat like an animal, train and sleep and growth will come. If you stop growing after a certain point increase your calories and repeat. Personally I weight myself every 2 weeks if I havent gained 1-3 pounds calories++.

As long as he doesn’t dress like Prince Adam and ask if he has potential for being a fitness model, all is well.
Any suggestions of a good source of useable calories that I could add to my daily diet to catch up? [/quote]
Basically, I wouldn’t look for “shortcuts” with regard to food intake. The sooner you learn to stomach the required quantities in whole foods like meat, fish, cottage cheese, oats, fruit and vegetables etc., the better. As you grow, you probably will require even more just to maintain.
That being said, if you are looking for calorie dense choices, try nuts, seeds, dried fruits, whole eggs, olive oil e.g. on your vegetables, organic peanut butter, etc. Drink whole milk. Apart from the peri-workout period, use shakes only when you are on the go and don’t have access to high protein food.
