UART is about the simplest.
You can do a software uart, but that isn't all that easy.
You can also send data on the handshake leads, or clock bits into a shift
register, by setting the data on the handshake lead, and sending a null
(0x00) byte out the uart to clock each bit.

The answer to this greatly depends on exactly what you're trying to do.
