Cook the mussels in a pan until they open. Heat olive oil in a pan, fry the prawns on both sides until they change color, then remove from the pan. Season the meat with salt and pepper until browned, then remove. Brown the calamari. Add the bell pepper, beans, onion, and tomato to the pan and fry. Return the meat and calamari to the pan. Deglaze with the meat stock, season with salt, pepper, and paprika, add the saffron, and cook for about an hour; you may need to add more stock. Add the rice to the pan and cook for 20 minutes. Five minutes before the end of the cooking time, arrange the mussels and prawns on top of the paella. You can also use spare ribs (salted and peppered).
