Chef Joey's Easy Tofu Marinade

Chef Joey Z.'s Note:

We are going to eat vegetarian today, so I wanted a marinade that is big and bold for my tofu. I put this one together and will add stir fried veggies with it. You could also add some noodles with this dish for a boost of carbs. I am going to bake my tofu, but it can be prepared in other ways as stated in the directions. Please use organic ingredients where possible.
