There is a late period Spanish recipe (1599) for Olla Podrida, a 
stew/casserole containing many different meats, sausage, root 
vegetables, and beans.  I'll try to get a translation posted soon.

If you're willing to go a little bit post-period, it seems likely that there 
might be a similar dish in 17th century French cuisine, but I am not 
familiar with those sources.
