Begin by preparing the vegetables. Wash the cucumber, cherry tomatoes, and salad greens thoroughly. Peel the cucumber if desired, then slice it into thin rounds.
Halve the cherry tomatoes, finely dice the red onion, and set all the prepared vegetables aside.
Shred the surimi sticks into thin, string-like pieces or cut them into bite-sized chunks, depending on your preference.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mixed salad greens, cucumber slices, cherry tomato halves, corn kernels, and diced red onion.
In a separate small bowl, make the dressing by whisking together the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper until smooth.
Add the shredded surimi to the bowl of vegetables, then pour the dressing over the salad mixture.
Gently toss the ingredients until evenly coated with the dressing.
Finely chop the fresh parsley and sprinkle it over the salad as a garnish.
Refrigerate the surimi salad for 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together, or serve immediately.
