Drain and rinse the hearts of palm. Cut them into 1/2-inch thick slices and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Halve the cherry tomatoes and add them to the bowl with the hearts of palm.
Peel the cucumber, slice it lengthwise, remove the seeds with a spoon, and then slice it into half-moons. Add to the bowl.
Thinly slice the red onion and add to the salad bowl.
Chop the parsley finely and add it to the salad.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper.
Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine all ingredients well.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed with more salt or lemon juice. Serve the salad immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 hours to let the flavors meld before serving.
