You can get baggies that hold up to boiling water.  Glad?  Ziplock?
I can't remember which.  They also stand up, period.  You can put
the contents of your cups in the bags and take them that way.

Me, I like to get retort packaged Indian food.  You boil it in the bag,
so your pot doesn't get yucky.  You can eat directly from the bag.
