It's better to feed smaller amounts of food daily or, at least, every other day. Try to feed him with as much different types of insects as possible (crickets, locusts, cockroaches, grasshoppers, butterflies, caterpilars, superworms, etc). Also, they enjoy snails, and they are quite capable of crushing their shells before devouring the meaty inside (provided snails are not to big: they shouldn't be wider than lizards head). Once or twice a month you can treat him with some fuzzy or hopper mice and waxworms. Also, now and then, he will enjoy some ripe, soft fruit and dandelion flowers.
