Iced protien coffee recipe?

I am trying to slowly change my eating habits so that I am eating clean and healthier. My regular breakfast is an Atkins brand cafe caramel or mocha latte shake. My mornings are crazy, and these provide a lot of protein and a kick of caffeine that when coupled with a bowl of fruit is low calorie and holds me over until lunch. Does anyone have a recipe for something similar to this? I need it to be something that I can make ahead of time (prob. Sunday night) and store in the fridge for the week in order to accomodate my grab and go mornings. Like Atkins, it also needs to be full of protein in order to keep me satisfied until lunch.

    The protein isn't what's keeping you full, its the fat! Atkins shakes are loaded with fat because Atkins is a fat based Ketogenic diet. Shouldn't really be mixed with a low fat way of eating. Atkins is awesome, when done right. You have all the energy in the world if you just did actual Atkins.

    Good Luck

    Two hard boiled eggs and a cup of coffee or tea. Ther are 35! ingredients in those shakes, excluding water and I don't know anyone who considers artificial sweeteners to be "clean".
