Just say, "Bless you." Most religious things have a secular side, as well.

Wow, I by no capacity found out that somebody ought to experience the top same way I do approximately being blessed after sneezing. I actually HATE being blessed when I sneeze.

Just look at them and ask "are you OK?"
It lightens the mood and you don't have to worry about pronouncing a pagan blessing over them.
