Method

Dice sausage and saute in a large heavy skillet over medium high heat. Cook until outside has a nice brown crust and inside is cooked, about 6 minutes. Sprinkle with paprika, salt and pepper. Remove sausage from pan to drain. In a medium large serving bowl, toss apple with lemon. In a small mixing bowl, whisk slaw dressing, vinegar, garlic and mustard. Add to apple and toss in cabbage, scallions, 1/2 of sausage and 1/2 of parsley. Top with remaining sausage, parsley and cheese.
