Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Prepare corn muffin mix according to package directions, but use egg substitute or egg whites for the egg and skim milk for the milk. Fold chicken, green onions, and sage into the batter.

Spray 6 muffin cups with the vegetable oil spray or line with paper baking cups. Spoon batter into cups. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Serve warm or chilled. Makes 6 muffins.

NOTE: Can be made in advance and stored in an airtight bag in the freezer for up to two months. Pop a muffin into a lunch bag in the morning and it will be thawed by lunchtime.
