In a large saucepan on medium high heat, add olive oil and wait for it to shimmer. Add the fideos and cook until toasted and golden. Remove the fideos and set aside on a plate. Add more oil if needed and stir in the onion and bell pepper and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the squid and cook for 3-4 minutes, occasionally stirring. Pour in the wine, bring to a boil, and wait for it to evaporate. Pour in the broth and crush the saffron threads and sprinkle into the broth. Return the noodles back into the pot, as well as the mussels and shrimp. Cook for 10 minutes, or until the pasta is al dente. Remove the fideua from the burner, cover (if using paella pan, use aluminum foil), and let it rest for 5 minutes.
