Some ideas.
Your breakfast sounds really lite, add some fruit & nuts to it.
Cheese makes everything better. Add cheese to your sandwich at lunch. Also, add some flavored seasoned nuts to your veggies and dip.
Replace your late night snack with a healthy dessert such as a yogurt (with fruit & nuts), or something similar.
Basically here's the formula I use. To increase calories if the food is sweet, add nuts. If the food is savory, add cheese *or* some other kind of fatty dairy if applicable. If your body can handle it, you may also add carbs for cals as fruit (sweet) or starches (savory).
