Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, add the ground beef, bread crumbs, parmesan cheese, onion, garlic, egg, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper. Mix until everything is just combined.
Take about 1 ½ tablespoons of meatball mixture in your hand and start forming it into a ball. Take one piece of the diced mozzarella, pop it into the center of the meatball, and continue to form a ball around the cheese. The meatballs should be 1 inch in diameter.
Place the finished meatballs onto the prepared baking sheet. Once the meatballs are all formed, place them in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through.
While the meatballs are baking, cook the noodles according to the package directions. Remove the cooked meatballs from the oven.
In a large saucepan or pot, add the meatballs and marinara sauce. Cook over medium-high heat until the sauce is heated evenly and the meatballs are all coated in sauce.
Remove the meatballs and sauce from the heat and serve with the cooked pasta.
