Mix ingredients together in a bowl and serve.
2
If you want to prepare multiple servings in advance, you can shred the carrots and lettuce and slice the onion in advance and store them in the fridge in a ziploc bag or tupperware container so you just have to dice a little cucumber and tomato and add a little dressing the next time.
