High calorie healthy foods?

I've just started getting into a workout routine and food logging again.  I signed up for My Fitness Pal and am trying to take it slow to maintain my milk supply.  My problem is, I'm used to eating how I needed to when I was much smaller and not BFing - I was in a more 1500 calorie range.  With MFP right now I'm trying to keep a net 1500 calorie intake....so with -300 cals for nursing I need a minimum of 1800 cals.  If I work out I burn 400-600 cals, which means some days I could be eating 2400 calories!  This seems like a ton to someone who has always restricted, but I'm losing and my supply is holding.  The only problem is I find myself getting to the end of a day and I still have a lot of cals left to consume - usually it's around 400, which is the equivelent of a 4th meal for me, basically.  Any ideas of things to add in during the day to keep my calorie counts up?  I do a lot of trail mix, cheese, avocado once or twice a week, peanut butter on fruit or toast, Greek yogurt....what other healthy foods are calorie dense?
