Ingredients
- 2 ripe avocados, pitted and flesh roughly diced
- 1 red onion, finely diced
- 1/2 cup diced English cucumber
- 8 (16/20 count) cooked shrimp (peeled and deveined and cut lengthwise in half)
- 1/2 cup jumbo lump crabmeat
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1/2 cup plain yogurt
- 1/4 cup tomato ketchup
- 1 lemon, juiced
- 1 teaspoon hot sauce (recommend: Tabasco)
- 2 tomatoes, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup freshly chopped chives
Directions
In a large bowl mix together the diced avocado, onions, cucumber, shrimp, and crabmeat and season with salt and pepper, to taste. In another bowl or a kitchen blender mix together the yogurt, ketchup, and lemon juice. When mixed thoroughly, slowly add the hot sauce, (not too much as it will over power the seafood).
To finish the dish, slowly add the dressing to the avocado mixture until slightly wet. Place 3 to 4 slices of tomato in the center of each serving plate, slightly separate just so the tomatoes touch.
Fill an ice cream scoop with the salad and place in the center of the tomatoes. Garnish with chopped chives and serve.

Tasty indeed! I served it to my grandmother (on my fathers side and she has a hard time with hearty foods like crusty bread and carrots, so this was a wonderful alternative. She really enjoyed it! Now I have to make it for my grandmother on my mom's side! oui vey!

This salad was fresh, light and so good. I served it to 5 woman as a starter course and they all wanted the recipe! It is simple to make and the ingredients are easy to find. I made the sauce ahead and just combined it with the chopped ingredients a few minutes before I served it. I used tall martini glasses for my presentation with some shredded lettuce in the bottom instead of the tomatoes. I definite winner!

I served this salad to my neighbor as a thank you and we both loved it! Some chopping and mixing and your done. Looks great on a small plate. It is quite pricey and I would leave the crab out next time, since I don't think it added much to the dish.
