Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Wash and peel the carrots. Cut them into uniform sticks or slices about 1/2 inch thick.
Finely chop the fresh thyme, rosemary, and parsley. Mince the garlic cloves.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, chopped herbs, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper.
Add the carrot sticks to the bowl and toss them until they are evenly coated with the herb mixture.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat for easy cleanup.
Spread the carrots on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, ensuring they are not overcrowded for even roasting.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the carrots are tender and begin to caramelize on the edges.
Remove the carrots from the oven and transfer to a serving dish. Garnish with an extra sprinkle of fresh parsley if desired.
Serve warm as a delicious and Whole30 compliant side dish!
