Rinse the broccoli florets thoroughly and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
Chop the broccoli into bite-sized pieces and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Dice the red onion finely and add it to the bowl with the broccoli.
Add the dried cranberries and sliced almonds to the bowl, mixing gently to combine all the ingredients.
In a smaller bowl, prepare the dressing by whisking together Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, honey, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.
Pour the dressing over the broccoli mixture and toss everything together until the salad is evenly coated.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt or pepper if desired.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill the salad in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve cold as a side dish or light main course, and enjoy!
