Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C).
Peel the turnips and cut them into 1-inch cubes approximately the same size for even cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cubed turnips, olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper. Toss everything together to coat the turnips evenly with the oil and seasonings.
Spread the seasoned turnips out in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Roast the turnips in the preheated oven for about 35-45 minutes, or until they are golden brown and tender when pierced with a fork. Make sure to flip the turnips halfway through the cooking time to ensure even roasting.
If desired, sprinkle the Parmesan cheese over the turnips about 5 minutes before they're done cooking, allowing the cheese to melt and become slightly crispy.
Remove the roasted turnips from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. Serve warm as a tasty side dish or light meal accompaniment.
