Prepare the broccoli by cutting it into small bite-sized florets. Rinse them thoroughly and pat dry with a kitchen towel.
In a large salad bowl, combine the broccoli florets, crumbled feta cheese, finely chopped red onion, toasted sunflower seeds, and dried cranberries or raisins.
In a small mixing bowl, prepare the dressing by whisking together the Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, white wine vinegar, honey, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well-combined.
Pour the dressing over the broccoli mixture. Using a large spoon, gently toss the ingredients until everything is evenly coated with the dressing.
Cover the salad bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. This step is optional but recommended.
Just before serving, give the salad another gentle toss and adjust seasoning if needed.
Serve chilled as a side dish or a light meal. Enjoy!
