Ray made her name hosting 30 Minute Meals on Food Network for 11 seasons from 2001 and 2012. In 2006, she launched her eponymous syndicated daytime talk show, where she showed off her culinary skills, shared recipes and lifestyle tips, and talked to famous guests.

While Ray’s talk show ended on May 24, 2023, it continued to exist as rachaelrayshow.com, which included an archive of recipes, advice, and more. However, on April 25, Ray announced that the website “has officially signed off.”

Her content, including recipes and archived shows, is now available at rachaelray.com. “Different address, same love from my kitchen to yours,” Ray wrote in an Instagram post announcing the move.

Ray also shares cooking advice on her Instagram page, often sharing videos from her kitchen or clips from her various TV shows.
