I agree Only stuff that was once a plant should go into your compost. But adding some regular garden soil should surely help with aeration, and also with the smell, which will surely go away very quickly now that you've let the air get in there.

Some people add egg shells for extra calcium, but I don't do that mainly because my soil is already full of sea shells. Where I live was once a beach.
