Peel the cucumber (if desired) and dice it into small pieces.
Peel and thinly slice the red onion into small strips.

In a small bowl, prepare the dressing by whisking together olive oil, lemon juice, honey, salt, and ground black pepper until well incorporated.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the avocado, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, and parsley.
Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients and gently toss to coat, being careful not to mash the avocado.
Taste the salad and adjust the seasoning if necessary, adding more salt or pepper to your preference.
