I know I am not getting enough food as you mentioned and am trying to focus on getting the daily protein. It is a struggle trying to figure out what to eat to reach daily goals as we typically are trying to cook a meal to feed 3 young kids who are picky right now.
Any helpful snacks, meals, etc that helped you?

Protein shakes are the biggest help for getting to the protein goal. Because protein-based food makes you more full, I made myself sick a couple times trying to hit 200g without shakes.
As far as meals, my go-tos are (1) just plain old 80/20 ground beef Pattie’s (Montreal seasoning and low-carb bbq sauce) with some rice or a sweet potato; and (2) a rotisserie chicken quesadilla with cheese, sautéed onions, and chipotle on a low-carb tortilla. For (1), you can adjust the fat % on the beef for your goals. 2 is my favorite to make for taking lunch to work bc I can just eat a couple at my desk.
ETA: I try to avoid snacks but if I do, it’s usually just a protein bar of some sort. Usually whatever that looks good on macros I can find on the cheap on Amazon.

make 2 or 3 meal plans for you and your wife. meal prep for yall then meal prep for your kids. found it to be the only way lol.
helpful hints for me, is use the microwave jasmine rice or microwave chicken flavored rice from uncle bens. also little potatoe company mircowave potatoe packets for carbs.
for protein- lots of eggs and ground beef or rotisserie chicken. whatever proteins are on sale work great.
only worry about hitting protien and calorie goals, how you feel up the rest dont matter than much.
ETA : also tell you like I tell the HS baseball players I help, want to gain weight, get 1k calories in before 9am. Go look at dr heenan instagram for more on this.
