Default My diet - tips and advice wanted please..

i've been asked/ordered by the top dogs to post my diet so here goes.
im aiming just to put on mass im a hard gaining ectomorph at heart so if you are trying to help i'de rather hear about a diet more suited to my body type not your individual one thanks.

right here goes:
i have tried different diet plans so far some have worked out better than others, i've tried a very strict diet which was:

8:00 6 whole eggs (v bad for cholestorol so stopped)
9:00 banana
10:30 pack of jaffa cakes (bad but seemed to give me energery)
13:00 100g brown rice 200g sliced chicken
15:00 100g peanuts
18:00 80g pasta 2xtin of tuna (250g drained)+veg
20:30 tin of mackrel
23:00 steak 'n' chips
[no suppliments because i'm a student with no money lol]
(this was roughly what i would eat yet some exceptions because i do have a social life)

I followed this diet for around 3 weeks and it was going well and i was gaining slowly. But then my body started to reject the food eating it because of the same food sources everyday, and i would start to feel sick when ever i ate, and even in anticipation of food. for example i would wake up in the morning and feel sick because in the back of my mind i knew i would go downstairs and cook 6 eggs. (like Pavlov's dog salivation reflex).

so after a few more weeks of this diet i was forcing every meal down trying not to be sick which wasn't doing me any good of course so i gave up and stopped the diet. since then i just ate what i felt like until my digestion was back to normal. and that brings me to now...

so now i'm just thinking of stocking up on all the main protein foods (fish, eggs, cheese, milk, chicken, turkey, lean meats), and will just make a small(ish) meal out of these 5-6 times a day, i'll also incorporate carbs and fat into the diet some how, not decided exactly how yet.

do you think an unplanned diet as such will work? because i dont want a strict system like last time and my body to reject all foods.

any other suggestions or tips?
thanks
