Word of advice from my personal experience, try to keep to whole foods as much as possible and keep the shakes to a minimum Ive always found by far the best gains to come from whole food!

More fats, and add some beef and veggies.

You're total calorie intake isn't close to a bulking total. Throw in some peanuts, almonds, peanut butter, whole eggs, beef, fish oil, salmon, whole milk....that should do it.
