I have such a sweet tooth I never think to have savory snacks, but this calls to my inner italian!
Haha! Go with it! Let me know if you try them!
Ah! I always loved to put the olives at the end of my fingers and eat them off one by one, Black olives are the bomb. These are super creative bars, Kaila!
Thanks Kaylin! Let me know if you try them!!
Totally on team olive and have loved them from the beginning of time too 🙂 Such a unique and creative recipe!
Thanks Deanna! I was really excited to share these!!
What a good idea! Sundried tomatoes and olives…..ooohhh that sounds lovely! Thanks for linking up for meatless monday 😀
No problem! I think you’d love these!!
I’m with you, olives are SO delicious. I too grew up eating them at a young age…hard not to when you come from a European house hold. Great recipe – will need to test them out in the kitchen!

I think these would convert you to an olive lover! ?
Yes, I’m a team olive! Love kalamata. I almost always choose savory over sweet. This looks delicious Kaila.
Thank you so much Jill! Let me know if you try them!!
I love that you’re jumping on the savory snack bar things, something I’ve been wanting to experiment with for a while! And a perfect place to start flavor-wise, everyone loves pizza <3 I honestly think I've only ever had olives once in my life, so I can't say if I like them or not :/ But in this form with all the chewy oats and savory spices and tomato flavor, I don't think I'd have a problem with them 🙂
Thanks girl!! I agree…who doesn’t love pizza?!
YAY! I LOVE savory snack bars…I used to have a fairly good recipe for them but couldn’t tell you what happened to it. 🙂 I will DEFINITELY be trying these out, though.
YOU WILL LOVE THESE, SARAH!!!
Ooh! I’m not really an olive fan, but I love that these snack bars are savory.

I love olives but rarely eat them… I should try to incorporate them in my cooking more often.
They really add a little something special to every dish! 🙂

Hi Kaila,
What a great healthy snack filled with loads of nutrition. Thanks for sharing on Real Food Fridays. Pinned & twitted.
Awesome. I love the idea of savory oat snacks. Well, savory anything for that matter. And I am shocked, I tell you SHOCKED, to hear some people don’t like olives. I don’t understand at all. Thanks for linking up at #SaucySaturdays.
Right!? I love them!!
Good Luck Kaila! These bars sound delicious! I love a good tamponade bruschetta!
Thanks Julie!!
Wow. I’ve never seen a recipe like this before. It sounds veeeeery interesting. I’m always on the look out for something interesting, but not necessarily sweet to put into my girls’ lunchboxes and I think that these will be making an appearance. SOON.
Yay good to hear! I think your kids will LOVE them!
Love this idea! Looks so good! Thank you so much for linking up at Tasty Tuesday! This post has been pinned on the Tasty Tuesday Pinterest board! I love having you and can’t wait to see you next week!

I bet my husband would love these. He’s a total tomato & olive fan. 🙂 Thanks for sharing these at Savoring Saturdays, Kaila! 🙂
Haha – I am one of those non-oliver likers ;p I’m trying to slowly add them to my meals every once in awhile. I find them tolerable at best. But I find them even more tolerable when they are in something. I bet this would be pretty good =)
Thanks for sharing this at Healthy Vegan Fridays. I’m pinning this!
I think you’d LOVE these even with the olives!! 🙂
How yummy, would never think of a savoury oat biscuit, these are so delicious looking x
Thank you!

Hello,
This recipe looks delicious! My family and I have been doing a lot of camping and I am struggling to find vegan snacks that don’t need refrigeration. Do these bars need to be kept in the fridge? I’m searching for hiking yummies. We recently cut meat out of our diet so I’m having to relearn how to cook. Thanks for sharing your talent of creating healthy, yummy food.
You could properly keep them out of the fridge for a few days! 😀

Thanks for sharing at the What’s for Dinner party. Hope your weekend is fantastic!
Thanks Helen!!
Hi, I just discovered your list of hidden-veggie recipes and since i am a terrible picky eater, I thought I would try a few. For this recipe, can I leave out the protein and cashews? would it still work?
I don’t think it would unfortunately!
