Following her show’s cancellation in 2003, Jenny Jones struggled to find work. Newsweek reports that she occasionally appeared on “The View” and was a judge on an episode of “Iron Chef” in 2010. Other than that, it was pretty much crickets on the TV screen for Jones. So, the plucky Canadian-born immigrant remade herself and her career, just as she’d done many times previously.
“Jenny Jones is best known for hosting the nationally syndicated talk show ‘Jenny Jones,’ but her resume lists many careers, including waitress, bookkeeper, temp worker, fashion model, caterer, comedian, musician, singer, songwriter, author, food blogger, and philanthropist,” her website bio reads. Jones decided to jump on the YouTube bandwagon and take her love of food along for the ride. She launched her own channel, “Jenny Can Cook” in 2008 along with an accompanying website. At the time of posting, “Jenny Can Cook” has 1.25 million subscribers and over 132 million views.

“I can cook. I really can. Thanks to my good fortune, I get to do something I love every day,” she writes. “And I’m sharing all my healthy, easy recipes with the world — 190 countries! I never expected that! People everywhere really like my cooking. Who knew?” Jones’ cooking videos include her whipping up meatloaf, fudge brownies, and apple pie. “I’m just a home cook sharing the recipes I make in my kitchen, hoping to motivate more people to cook at home,” she explains.
