If you are looking to gain weight and are not allergic to nuts, then nuts are the best way to go. Used to weight 145 lbs. After 2 or 3 months of nuts, I went to 160 lbs. I have a stubborn body that normally hates gaining weight. My body met its match when it came to nuts. Now, you have to buy Massive Kilogram bags. Aim to eat about 2KG per week or 4KG if you regularly work out. Nuts are high in Fat about 50%. Fat is the substance which is highest in calories, 25 cal/g whereas protein/carbs are 4 cal/g. You gain weight by eating lots of calories. If you can think of any other substance which is more than 50% fat, then go with that substance. But I'm telling I'm genetically superior as to not gain weight yet nuts defeated me, and I was much happier with my weight afterwords.

In general, to gain 1 lb of body fat you need to create a calorie surplus of 3500 Calories. For example, if you intake 2500 calories a day and expend 2000, that's a surplus of 500 calories a day. At that rate you will gain 1 pound a week (7 days x 500calories/day = 3500 Calories) You need to consider your natural body metabolism and how much you exercise, and compare that to how much you eat.
