Unfortunately it's really hard to get enough vitamin D from just foods. We were meant to get a lot of it from the sun by being outside all day.
Low-mercury fish like sardines and wild pacific/alaskan salmon are going to be your best bet, but even then you'd have to eat an awful lot of those to get enough vitamin D.
The vitamin D council recommends 5000 IU of vit D a day (
Vitamin D Council | Understanding Vitamin D Cholecalciferol). The DV is unfortunately way outdated and not adequate to reach optimal vitamin D levels.
