Thinly slice the green and red cabbage and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Grate the carrots and add them to the bowl with the cabbage.
Roughly chop the walnuts and toast them in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3-4 minutes or until fragrant. Let them cool and then add to the bowl.
Add the dried cranberries to the mixing bowl with the other ingredients.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, apple cider vinegar, honey, salt, and black pepper to make the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss everything together until the slaw is evenly coated.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate the slaw for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Before serving, toss the slaw again to redistribute the dressing and garnish with extra walnuts or cranberries if desired.
