A leaf bug flew into my room yesterday. I've already named him Steve. Is there anything I could keep in the room so he can eat and not die?

One of these guys. I got him in this bread pan with that big ass leaf acting like a moat in shallow water. I threw a bunch of random leaves I found from outside including clover. But I have no idea if he's gonna eat any of that.

EDIT: Oh shit he's eating the big ass leaf now

    That's a katydid, related to grasshoppers. It'll probably like eating leaves, but their diets can be varied, and who knows what kind of plants it prefers/needs.
