The dreaded Monday morning. The alarm rings, and before your feet even hit the floor, your brain is already cycling through the day's tasks, the urgent emails, and the inevitable rush. In this whirlwind, breakfast often becomes an afterthought, a quick grab-and-go that rarely truly satisfies or fuels you for the demands of the day.
But what if your Monday—and every weekday morning—could start with a delicious, protein-packed breakfast that requires literally zero effort when you wake up? A breakfast that tastes incredible, gives you sustained energy, and supports your health goals, all without dirtying a single pan?
This isn't a pipe dream. This is the power of meal prepping overnight oats and overnight Weet-Bix, transformed into a creamy, coffee-infused, protein powerhouse with our secret weapon: 99th Monkey Coffee Protein Smoothie cartons.
This Sunday ritual is about to change your entire week.
The Meal Prep Power: Why Sunday is Your Superpower
Meal prepping is more than just a trend; it's a strategic move towards a healthier, less stressful life. When it comes to breakfast, it’s particularly effective.
-
Time-Saving Hero: Imagine waking up and simply opening the fridge to a ready-made, delicious breakfast. No cooking, no cleaning, just pure enjoyment. This frees up precious minutes in your morning, allowing you to savour your coffee, get an extra few minutes of sleep, or tackle that important task without a rumbling stomach.
-
Stress Reduction: The mental load of deciding what to eat every morning, especially when you're half-asleep, is real. Meal prepping removes that decision fatigue, giving you one less thing to worry about.
-
Healthier Choices: When you prep your meals, you're in control of the ingredients. This significantly reduces the likelihood of resorting to less nutritious, high-sugar, or processed options when hunger strikes and time is short.
-
Portion Control: Pre-portioned meals help you stay on track with your nutritional goals, ensuring you get the right amount of fuel without overeating.
While overnight oats have been a meal prep favourite for years, we're taking it to the next level by introducing a key ingredient that simplifies, amplifies, and electrifies your breakfast game.
The Secret Ingredient: 99th Monkey Coffee Protein Smoothie
This is where your meal prep goes from good to absolutely phenomenal. Our 99th Monkey Coffee Protein Smoothie cartons are the ultimate secret weapon for your overnight breakfasts, and here's why they are the perfect "liquid" for your oats and Weet-Bix:
-
Instant Coffee Flavour: Forget brewing coffee, then adding milk, then adding protein powder. Our smoothie delivers a delicious, natural coffee flavour straight into your breakfast, perfectly balanced and ready to go. It's like an instant iced latte and protein shake all in one, infused directly into your oats.
-
20g Protein Powerhouse: Each carton boasts a whopping 20g of protein. This is crucial for satiety, muscle repair, and sustained energy. Traditional overnight oats, while healthy, can sometimes leave you feeling hungry mid-morning. By using our smoothie, you're packing a significant protein punch that will keep you feeling fuller for longer.
-
No Added Sugar (Less than 1%): Unlike many other flavoured milks or ready-to-drink options, our Coffee Protein Smoothie contains less than 1% sugar. This means you get all the delicious taste without the unwanted sugar spikes and subsequent crashes. You’ll experience stable energy levels throughout your morning.
-
Less than 1% Fat: It's also incredibly low in fat, making it a lean, clean source of protein and flavour.
-
Ultimate Convenience: The single-serve carton format is ideal. No measuring, no messy powders, just pour and go. This simplicity is key for making meal prep truly effortless.
By simply swapping out your usual milk or water for our 99th Monkey Coffee Protein Smoothie, you’re creating an instant, delicious, and nutritionally superior breakfast that requires no thought when you're half-asleep.
The Dream Team: Overnight Oats and Overnight Weet-Bix
We love both overnight oats and overnight Weet-Bix for their ease and versatility. Using our Coffee Protein Smoothie elevates both.
Overnight Oats with 99th Monkey Coffee Protein Smoothie
-
Why it works: Oats are a fantastic source of complex carbohydrates and soluble fibre, which provide sustained energy and support gut health. When soaked overnight in our Coffee Protein Smoothie, they become incredibly creamy and infuse with a rich coffee-chocolate flavour.
-
The Process:
-
In an airtight container, combine 1/2 cup rolled oats with one carton of 99th Monkey Coffee Protein Smoothie.
-
Stir well, making sure all oats are submerged.
-
Cover and refrigerate overnight (or for at least 4 hours).
-
In the morning, stir and enjoy! Add your favourite toppings like berries, a dollop of our almond butter, or a sprinkle of cinnamon.
-
Overnight Weet-Bix with 99th Monkey Coffee Protein Smoothie
-
Why it works: Weet-Bix is another Australian breakfast staple, known for its fibre content. When crushed and soaked in liquid, it forms a thick, cake-like base that is perfect for layering. Using our Coffee Protein Smoothie turns it into a decadent, coffee-infused breakfast.
-
The Process:
-
In an airtight container, crush 2-3 Weet-Bix biscuits.
-
Pour one carton of 99th Monkey Coffee Protein Smoothie over the crushed Weet-Bix, ensuring it's mostly covered.
-
Stir briefly to combine the liquid and Weet-Bix.
-
Cover and refrigerate overnight.
-
In the morning, you'll have a thick, creamy base ready for delicious toppings. We love a layer of yoghurt, fresh fruit, and a dollop of almond butter for added nutrients.

The Nutritional Benefits: Fuelling Your Day Right
Beyond the convenience and taste, these meal-prepped breakfasts offer a robust nutritional profile:
-
Sustained Energy: The complex carbohydrates from the oats/Weet-Bix combined with the protein and low sugar content of our smoothie ensure a slow, steady release of energy throughout your morning. No more mid-morning slump!
-
High Protein: The 20g of protein per serve is crucial for satiety, helping you feel fuller for longer and reducing the likelihood of unhealthy snacking. Protein also supports muscle maintenance and growth.
-
Fibre-Rich: Both oats and Weet-Bix are packed with dietary fibre, essential for digestive health, blood sugar regulation, and promoting a healthy gut microbiome.
-
Low Sugar: By using our smoothie, you're avoiding the excess added sugars found in many breakfast options, contributing to better energy management and overall health.
-
Hydration: Starting your day with a hydrating, nutrient-rich meal is a great way to kickstart your metabolism and prepare your body for the day ahead.
Your Sunday Ritual: A Small Effort, A Big Reward
Imagine the scene: It’s Sunday afternoon. You spend 10-15 minutes preparing 4 containers of overnight Weet-Bix and 3 containers of overnight oats, using our 99th Monkey Coffee Protein Smoothie. You pop them into the fridge.
Come Monday morning, your breakfasts are ready. No fuss, no mess, just instant, delicious, protein-packed fuel. You grab a container, maybe add a few berries or a spoonful of nut butter, and you're set. That small effort on Sunday has just bought you an entire week of calm, healthy, and satisfying mornings.
This isn't just about food; it's about reclaiming your mornings, reducing stress, and giving your body the consistent, high-quality fuel it deserves.
So, this Sunday, make a date with your kitchen. Your future self (and your Monday morning self) will thank you.
