How on earth do you meet your protein goals?

I am looking to gain muscle so Iā€™ve been increasing my calorie protein intake and focusing on weights. I used the ā€œprotein calculatorā€ on bodybuilding.com. Apparently I need to eat 185g of protein a day. That seems like a lot to me and Iā€™m trying to think of how I can do that. I love fish but itā€™s expensive and impractical to eat daily, given where I live. I have been putting 22g protein powder in my coffee blenders. I am drinking lots of milk. I eat a lot of meat and yogurt. Whenever I do the math to see how much protein Iā€™ve consumed for the day, it is nowhere near 180gā€¦ maybe around 130g at most. I have no clue how to meet and maintain my protein goals in a practical manner. Putting scoops of protein in everything I drink? Spending more on foods rich in protein? How do you guys do it? I canā€™t seem to get creative or meet my goal.

I aim for a little over 1g/pound for muscle building.
