Peanut butter
Pizza
Burger King (whopper with cheese!)
Mc'Donalds (mcmuffin breakfast!)
Fattier meats (pork, 80/20 beef, etc)
Eat 6 meals (not 3 meals and 3 snacks).
Creatine will help you gain water weight, but not a lot of additional mass. If you want mass, spend that money on food. You truly might have to eat some "junk food" to get your weight up. And if you gain some fat, so what? You're an ectomorph. That will come right back off as soon as you tone it back <jealous>

Listen to this man. Nobody gets big or *really* strong (my preferred term) by eating clean. Proof: olympic weightlifters, powerlifters, strongman competitors. The last three times I PR'ed my deadlift (500, 505, 510) were on days after I had Taco Bell for dinner.
