Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. The flavors meld beautifully overnight.
To elevate the dish, sprinkle a dash of paprika or smoked salt over the finished salad.
For a vegan version, swap sausages for plant-based alternatives and use dairy-free cheese.
