Italian recipes with mixed meats

Mixed meat recipe ideas

The Italian cuisine offers plenty of examples of recipes for meat. They are often made with various types for sumptuous full menus.
They are also long-to-do and high-calorie dishes that can not be done frequently due to time, cost and nutritional imbalance but as they say "Semel in the year" ... why not?
