soften it overnight with hibiscus tea. and mix it with fresh greens, that way it sticks and they can't ignore it as easy. You could also try @Kapidolo Farms gel food recipe. you can search the posts/ videos on how to make it.

There's no rule that says tortoise MUST eat manufactured tortoise food. If he's eating greens and a good diet otherwise, he needn't eat the pellets.
