In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add ground beef and onion, breaking up the beef with a spoon, and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
Stir in diced zucchini, crushed tomatoes, beef broth, pasta, oregano, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil.
Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 12-15 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent pasta from sticking, until pasta is al dente and most liquid is absorbed.
Remove from heat and let stand for 2-3 minutes. The sauce will thicken slightly.
Serve hot, topped with grated Parmesan cheese. Offer extra cheese on the side for kids.
