Begin by washing the strawberries and cherry tomatoes under cold water. Remove the green tops from the strawberries and dice them. Slice the tomatoes in half and finely chop the shallot. Set aside in a large mixing bowl.

In the large bowl, add the chopped shallot, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, black pepper, and parsley to the prepared strawberries and tomatoes.

Gently stir the salad to combine all flavors without squishing the berries, carefully folding the ingredients together to maintain vibrant colors.

Transfer your salad to a serving dish and let it chill in the refrigerator for about 10-15 minutes before serving.
