There are several ways to achieve this, I think.

I'd be inclined, after one of these transactions has already been
input, with meal and deducted entered as splits, to duplicate that
transaction, leaving just the 'meal' split to have its correct amount
entered.

Another way would be, for the second 'meal' transaction, to create a
new transaction and select the same payee, which will display previous
similar items from which you may choose the best.
