Eating similarly every day is a good way to maintain a diet imo. I eat similarly most days at the moment. Often prep multiple variants of meals that amount to similar macros and switch them in and out.
FWIW your diet looks very low carb (unless you're just not mentioning them). Unless you're low enough carb to go into ketosis, carbs are very important for feeling fuelled for your workouts.

Just my opinion but your gainz will be limited on that amount of food.
Ideally you have the breakfast you’re having. Then the dinner x3. Finish with an egg white omelette before bed.
This is my current plan. But ill at the moment so that’s fine out the window. I’m trying to do a slow cut hence not carb heavy.
Pre workout shake: 6 egg whites, amino acids, creatine
Meal 1: fruit smoothie with protein, amino acids, creatine
Meal 2: chicken breast, 2xpoched eggs
Meal 3: porridge 80g
Meal 4: chicken breast with rice
Meal 5: homemade burger 5% mince, low fat chips and salad.
Meal 6: 6 egg white omelette -
Tracking helped me more than anything else I tried.
I write everything down and calculate macros later. I work at an airport and am surrounded by food, yummy delicious fast food.
Some people take pictures and calculate at the end of the day.

I had a really shitty gym session yesterday, the cherry on top was forgetting a 1.25kg plate on my squat, I wonder if the the bar being off balance was why I struggled so much (excuses). Overhead press is getting very hard, first time I've moved the safety bars right up! Deadlift with 2 plates is no joke, which brings me on to my next point.
I've come to realise I'm not eating enough to be able to shift all this weight and recover in time. Something in my brain makes tracking impossible, I can hardly keep track of anything else in life. My new tactic is to record one day then replicate, so something like: breakfast (Skyr, Avo, toast, cottage cheese), lunch (eggs!), dinner (chicken/salmon/steak, lots of veg), desert/snacks (peanut butter, nuts)
repeat that x7
I usually have my creatine and clear whey daily.
