Add craisins and pineapple chunks to the bowl and gently toss to distribute evenly.
In a separate smaller bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, honey, apple cider vinegar, salt, and black pepper to make the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss until everything is evenly coated.
Taste and adjust seasoning, if needed, by adding more salt or pepper.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
