They can eat most veg (notanything hard though, like potato, or carrot) and lettuce, but NOT iceberg lettuce. They will also eat fruit. But the best food is crickets, or locusts. The locusts are nicer for the beardie, and they don't look so gross. Also meal worms and wax worms.

Crickets/locusts (depending on the size) and a fresh salad with NO iceberg lettuce.

The salad should include Kale, Alfalfa, Dandelion etc and it should be dusted with a vitamin supplement.

Jueveniles need 80 percent protein (crickets, baby dubia roaches) and 20 percent greens. If it says lettuce, it has NO nutritional value. Collard greens, turnip greens, baby arugula are all good. Squash is a good staple with the greens as well. Adults get the opposite. Make sure they do not eat anything bigger then the space between their eyes. They need to be put in warm water up to their shoulder a couple times a week for hydration since they take the water in through their vent.
