I make my own dinners too, and wanted to avoid boiling water in ziplocs. We ended up going to the local coffee shop and getting a large paper coffee cup for every dinner. We carried them all in a stack during the hunt in our packs. Didn't matter much if they got smashed.
At dinner, pull out a cup, add dried food, add boiling water, wrap in a cozy, wait, eat, then burn the cup. You can do a second round if your dinner won't all fit first time.
The are heavier than plastic bags, but I liked being able to simply burn them with a little less guilt than burning a plastic bag. And they are designed for hot liquid, although I'm sure they still leech some kind of crap into your food.
