Prepare the Vegetables
Wash the mixed greens thoroughly under cold running water. Pat dry with a clean kitchen towel or use a salad spinner to remove excess water.

Peel the cucumbers if desired, then slice them into thin rounds or half-moons.
Grate the Carrots
Use a box grater or food processor to grate the carrots and add them to the bowl with the tomatoes.
Assembly
Combine the Salad Ingredients
In a large salad bowl, combine the mixed greens, diced tomatoes, sliced cucumbers, and grated carrots. Toss gently to mix.
Add Cheese and Croutons
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese and croutons over the salad. Toss gently again to combine.
Serving
Serve the Salad
