Preheat oven to 425°.
Peel the skin off the rutabaga and julienne it. Make sure you have a good sharp knife to cut the rutabaga.
On a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, layer the julienned rutabaga and sprinkle with the olive oil and seasonings. Mix well.
Bake for 30 minutes, tossing after 10 minutes so that they bake evenly.
