In a separate small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, honey, lime juice, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the cabbage and pineapple mixture. Using tongs or a large spoon, gently toss the salad until all ingredients are evenly coated with the dressing.
Taste the salad and adjust seasoning with additional salt or lime juice if needed.
Cover and refrigerate the salad for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve chilled as a light side dish or as part of a summer meal.
