Cook lasagna noodles according to package directions, omitting salt. Drain and rinse well under cold water. Place in single layer on aluminum foil.

Combine cottage cheese, egg, chives, nutmeg and black pepper. Stir in chicken mixture. Spread a generous 1/3 cup filling over each lasagna noodle. Roll up noodles, starting at short end. Place filled rolls, seam-side down, in 10- by 8-inch baking dish; set aside.

Melt margarine in small saucepan. Stir in flour; cook 1 minute. Whisk in chicken broth, milk and mustard. Cook, stirring constantly, until thickened. Pour sauce over filled rolls; sprinkle with tomato. Cover dish with foil. Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until filling is set.
