I also use Eat this Much and really love it. It is easy way to get a grocery list together once a week. I really love the weekly template after I got everything all set up.
I was also new to protein powders about 3 weeks ago and did some serious research. I went with Optimal Nutrition's Gold Standard varieties. I got a 2lb container of the Mocha Cappuccino and it was really good. I wanted to try a couple other flavors but was nervous to get to much in big quantities. On amazon they have a couple flavors in 1lb portions for almost the same price per oz when you buy in bulk quantities so that you can try out a couple of their flavors. They aren't the "Gold Standard" (not sure the exact difference to be honest) but they are still pretty highly rated. Here is a link to the 1lb containers: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00120ZSWC/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
As someone who lifts at LEAST 6 days a week, you should probably cut cardio out. Like completely. You have an ectomorph build so you don't need any help from cardio with your field mouse metabolism. Buy a good whey protein isolate (this one is my person favorite), eat A LOT (don't confused eating a lot with eating dirty), and get good sleep.
If you can't do without your cardio though, keep it short and high intensity. I rarely do cardio but if I do, it's on the bike and I go HARD for like 30-60 seconds then rest for 30-60 seconds and rinse/repeat. I try not to go longer than 10-15 minutes cause it's the longer/endurance cardio sessions that start to cannibalize your muscles.
Also, shave. It won't help you with your gains but that tuft of hair on your chin isn't doing you any favors.
