not eating vegetables

Hi.

My female bearded dragon, Riley, who is a year and three quarters old, rarely eats vegetables. Every day, I put leaves, either collard greens or kale, and another fruit or vegetable (this week I tried snow peas, strawberries, bananas and grapes), in the terrarium. I also put superworms and/or dubia roaches in the terrarium.

Riley eats the worms and the roaches, but doesn't touch the vegetables or fruits.

Riley came out of brumation last week. I thought that maybe she was very hungry after brumation, and would eat vegetables. At first, I put only collard greens in the cage, which she didn't eat. Later I put worms in, and she ate them very quickly.

Before brumation, I've seen her eat one leaf at a time on very rare occasions.

Any ideas how to get her to eat vegetables?
If she doesn't eat vegetables, and I sprinkle worms and roaches with vitamins and calcium, is that ok?

Thanks!
