What is a good/safe way to GAIN weight

What is a good/safe way to GAIN weight?
My wife and I are both tall (6'2" and 6') and thin (I'm 175). We live overseas in Hungary and have to walk everywhere. We would both like to gain weight but it seems we simply cannot. One of us is 31 and other 29. Looking for safe and simple (don't have same stuff as in America) way(s) to gain weight.

High protein & complex carb diet combined with resistance training (like lifting weights). Just like anyone, stay away from fatty, sugary, refined, processed junk foods (like all the stuff the guy above me suggested, lol). You want the weight to be lean muscle, not fat, and you don't want your arteries clogging up with plaque. Five to six healthy protein/complex carb meals a day, with protein shakes a few times inbetween. And exercise.

My basketball coach used to have me drink some sort of meal replacement drink (Ensure, Fortify Plus, etc.) in between meals. It helped me put on weight.

Proteins are required for building muscles, so having high protein foods like eggs, milk, peanut butter, protein shakes will help. Weight training helps a person build muscles and increase body weight.
