Wash the broccoli thoroughly and cut it into small, bite-sized florets. Place the florets in a large mixing bowl.
Finely chop half of a medium red onion and add it to the bowl with the broccoli.
Peel and shred 1 medium carrot (or use pre-shredded carrots) and add it to the bowl.
Add the dried cranberries and slivered almonds to the bowl with the vegetables.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, honey, salt, and black pepper until the dressing is smooth and well combined.
Pour the dressing over the broccoli mixture and toss everything together until evenly coated.
Let the salad sit for at least 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. Optionally, refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving for a chilled salad.
Serve the salad cold as a side dish or light meal. Enjoy!
