Dietary regime that's saving me cooking (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

veganism

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'dietary regime' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot judge whether this works.

'saving me cooking' is the wordplay.
'cooking' indicates an anagram (letters cooked up into a new form).
'saving'+'me'='savingme'
'savingme' with letters rearranged gives 'VEGANISM'.

'that's' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for veganism that I've seen before include "Life-style choice" , "Dietary practice" .)
