Hmmm, well, I do not recommend feeding pellets to any parrot so, in truth, I don't really know how to convert a bird to them or how to make it eat more of them. My birds all eat gloop with raw produce for breakfast and I have successfully transitioned hundreds of birds to it... but that's mostly because they love the gloop while I would imagine that they couldn't possibly like pellets (they are super dry, have the texture of sawdust and almost no taste -and I know because I have eaten them myself). I would also not recommend you feed a lot of millet because it has very poor nutrition and it's mostly used for fattening a sick bird.
Why don't you try giving them gloop and raw produce for breakfast and using small pieces of nuts for training? That would be so much healthier for them...
