Your food looks good. Balanced, healthy. If you're trying to eat more, you could definitely sneak in some calories here or there - add some ground flax seeds or take a couple tablespoons of flaxseed oil each day, switch from non-fat feta to regular, use 1.5 scoops of whey protein, etc.
I used to feel like it was SO HARD to eat more than 1500 calories a day, but now I feel like I can swing around 1000 calories just by adding or subtracting grains, pats of butter or olive oil, nuts, cheese, PWO shakes, etc., and leaving the protein, fruits and veggies the same.
