Peas, corn, chopped lettuce, squash, tomato etc. Mine took a while to actually eat some types of veggies but now whenever I walk outside they expect something. You can try throwing some veg in a pool or bucket they do like to "fish" for things.

Mine even like romaine lettuce. and chopped cabbage they will eat in the winter. But green peas they love.

Frozen peas, chopped cabbage, chopped iceberg lettuce, romaine, left over scraps of just about any vegetable/fruit I cook i.e. carrot peal, apple peal, cucumber peals (although I usually do not give those to them when purchased from market as they might be waxed) The "scraps" definitely are not as popular as the cabbage or romaine. I also still have kale growing in the garden (although I suspect it must be a little bitter) that they eat as well as the mesclun I grew for them last summer that is starting the leaf up again (suspect this has to be bitter too, but they are eating on it.) NO potato peals as they can be poisonous.
