Wash and dry the broccoli florets thoroughly. Chop them into small, bite-sized pieces and transfer them to a large mixing bowl.
Add the shredded carrots and purple cabbage to the bowl with the broccoli.
In a small dry skillet, toast the sunflower seeds and sliced almonds over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until they are lightly golden and fragrant. Set aside to cool.
Add the cooled sunflower seeds, sliced almonds, and dried cranberries to the vegetable mixture in the bowl.
In a separate small bowl, prepare the dressing by whisking together mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, apple cider vinegar, honey, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.
Pour the dressing over the vegetable mixture and toss everything together thoroughly to ensure the dressing coats all the ingredients evenly.
Let the coleslaw sit in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve chilled as a side dish, and enjoy your crunchy broccoli coleslaw!
