Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, avocado, and red onion.
Once cooled, chop the cooked shrimp into bite-sized pieces and add them to the mixing bowl along with the lump crab meat.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, fresh lemon juice, parsley, dill, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper to make the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients and gently toss everything together until well combined.
Transfer the salad to a serving dish or individual plates.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
