Wash the cherry tomatoes thoroughly and slice each one in half. Place them in a large mixing bowl.
Peel the red onion, slice it thinly into rings, and add it to the bowl with the tomatoes.
Rinse the basil leaves and parsley, pat them dry, and chop them finely. Add the herbs to the tomato and onion mixture.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, white wine vinegar, honey, salt, and black pepper until fully combined to create the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the tomato mixture and toss gently to coat all the ingredients evenly.
Taste the salad and adjust the seasoning with additional salt or pepper, if desired.
Let the salad sit at room temperature for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve the salad as a refreshing side dish or light appetizer. Enjoy!
