Best foods to gain weight?

my brother and I are both trying to gain some weight...... We were wondering what foods would be good to help us gain healthy weight....

Also I heard that to gain weight you eat your body weight in protein.... what would happen if I eat more than my body weight.... i.e: weighing 120 and eating 130 grams of protein.

Thank you any help is great!

    You'll need to eat a lot of protein (red meat, fish, dairy products, eggs, nuts etc) and carbohydrates (pasta, potatoes, rice, oatmeal etc).

    The more carbs you eat the harder it is for your body to burn fat because it has to burn through carbs first. Also you'll need some "healthy fats (olive oil, peanuts, peanut butter, almonds, sunflower oil, walnuts, flax seed oil, borage oil, avacadoes, fish oils).
