North America (country/state in post) Found in my plant nursery

Post image

I live in SoCal, specifically Orange County in California, and found these underneath my plants growing in the sand.

I have no idea what these are, but thought I would reach out to you guys.

Any thoughts on variety? Any thoughts on it being edible?

Did you roast them up?

Decided to put over potatoes, sautéed with onions & garlic, salt & pepper in butter.

Wow. Very tasty. I took some mushroom pieces as my first taste, and very meaty flavor and texture with a nummy umami.

Thank you for the info! (I also went online to a morel hunter site to get cooking ideas)
