Place a tablespoon of olive oil in a second large pot or dutch oven to warm over medium heat. Add onion and ground beef to the pot. Cook breaking up the ground beef with a wooden spoon until brown and no longer pink, about 7-10 minutes. Drain any additional grease from the pan.
Add in garlic, salt, and Italian seasoning to the ground beef mixture. Cook one minute over medium heat, until fragrant.
Pour marinara sauce and chicken broth in with the ground beef mixture. Stir continuously, and bring to a boil. Then reduce the heat to medium-low to a simmer for 5 minutes.
Place noodles in individual bowls and ladle soup over noodles. Top with mozzarella cheese, parmesan cheese, and basil (optional). Serve and enjoy.
