At 1 year old the transition should just be starting. What is her weight and length at the moment? If she still has some growing to do, then regular bugs may still be needed. Otherwise I would just keep offering a variety of salad items and hold off on bugs until she digs in. She may still be a bit young for that though so a bug meal every day or every other day is probably still appropriate now.
She looks like she's pretty big in those photos. I'd probably stop offering supers as they are somewhat unhealthy in regular doses. Try offering a nice big salad every day for a couple of weeks and see if she starts to dig in. Offer a variety and see if you can find something she likes. Hand feeding veges sometimes helps too so I'd give that a shot. This is a good list to reference for ideas http://www.beautifuldragons.com/Nutrition.html but I'd pick things out based more on what looks freshest at the store & what you have available to you.

if he is a worm addict - try offering medium and large silkworms …. see viewtopic.php?f=76&t=234999&start=15 , mulberry leaves are extremely nutritious and as high Ca/P as collard greens.
alternatively , feed those greens to crickets/roaches/locusts and make sure they a very well gutloaded then use the insects to feed beardie …. greens in disguise.
