I would suggest you look into getting Hikari floating cichlid pellets, or possibly the 'Cichlid Attack!' sinking pellets. These are a good general food for most african cichlids. To supplement this, you should try getting two packs of the frozen food cubes. One should be bloodworms, a good protein source nearly everyone on this board uses, and the other I use is the Emerald green cubes. They're a mixture of vegetation and krill and other fun stuff cichlids all love. I'd mostly suggest the bloodworms as treats and the emerald cubes as a more common food.
