Wash and prepare your broccoli florets by cutting them into bite-sized pieces.
Slice the red grapes in half.
Drain and rinse the canned chickpeas under cold water.
Toast the slivered almonds in a dry skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until golden brown. Let them cool.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the broccoli florets, halved grapes, chickpeas, toasted almonds, and sliced red onion.
In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, lemon juice, honey, salt, and black pepper until smooth to create the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the broccoli mixture and toss until everything is well coated.
Let the salad chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Before serving, give the salad a final toss and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve cold.
